Covid-19 Policies and Procedures

The information below was created for the Summer 2020.  We will follow the same guidelines for 2021 until state and local restrictions are lifted.


The Technique Swim Academy is working closely with the Boston Sports Institute and Charles River Aquatics to ensure that all protocols set forth by the CDC, Massachusetts Department of Early Childhood Education and the Wellesley Board of Health are enforced.  


The CDC  has stated “there is no evidence that the virus that causes COVID-19 can be spread to people through the water in pools...” Chlorine inactivates the SARS-CoV-2 virus in water and the BSI Pools have an additional layer of protection—UV Filtration Systems—that kill the virus.  However, there is an inherent risk of exposure to Covid-19 when in public despite our best efforts to mitigate the spread so please read the expectations below carefully to determine your comfort factor before signing up for our program.


The facility Swimming Safely guidelines below will be strictly enforced for the safety of all swimmers and staff: 

  

  • All patrons must wear a face covering to enter the natatorium at the BSI. This face covering must be worn at all times, with the exception of while swimming.
     
  • All patrons will practice social distancing (at least 6 feet) whenever possible, with the exception of among members of the same household.
     
  • All patrons will enter the natatorium at the BSI via the wet corridor and check in on pool deck. 


  •  At the point of check in, each patron will have his/her temperature taken with a no- touch digital forehead thermometer, and will be asked a series of short questions to confirm he/she and others in his/her household are not exhibiting symptoms of COVID- 19 (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/symptoms-testing/symptoms.html) and have not been recently exposed to an infected individual. If a patron registers a
    temperature over 99.9 degrees, or reports symptoms or exposure, he/she will be immediately turned away and encouraged to seek medical attention. 


  • If a patron exhibits symptoms of COVID-19 while engaged in activity at the BSI, he/she will be immediately isolated and arrangements will be made for discharge.
     
  • On deck bleachers and benches will be marked at 6 foot intervals to allow for social distancing.
     
  • Patrons are asked to leave personal belongings on on-deck seating while swimming. Neither the Technique Swim Academy nor CRA are not responsible for these belongings. Please leave valuables at home.


  • Patrons are asked to arrive as close to assigned pool time as possible and to depart immediately upon completion of activity. 


  • Changing rooms at the BSI will be closed except for access to toilets and sinks. Patrons are asked to arrive at the BSI in swim attire, ready to swim, and to towel off and depart the facility in a timely manner after swimming.
     
  • Spectator seating will be closed.
     
  • Water fountains/bottle fillers will be closed. Patrons are encouraged to bring a full labeled water bottle to the pools.
     
  • Equipment will not be available to borrow while swimming. Patrons must bring necessary equipment. This equipment may not be shared with other swimmers, with the exception of among patrons from the same household.
     
  • When swimming, patrons must follow CRA staff directions for spacing, maintaining at least 6 feet of separation.
     
  • The Technique Swim Academy and CRA ask patrons to stay home if not feeling well. (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/if-you-are-sick/steps-when-sick.html)
