Throughout the year, you may discover different routines during your shift tomake opening more efficient and quick. However, for the sake of review and

learning, these are specific step-by-step processes for your assistance.

First Steps

At 5:30am, enter the Aquatic Center through the receiving doors. These are

located on the south side of the building next to the outdoor pursuit center.

You will need to swipe your key card. While entering the office dont forget

to punch in.

First while walking into the office turn on the lights, the copier machine, the

radio, the head guard and deck manger computers. On Mondays check the

AED for the green light and expiration date of pads. Next, take a radio turn it

on, and make sure it is on channel 9. Then grab the keys from the lock box.Remember you can punch in the key code in any order. (Screen shows

Take the keys, and walk over to the Tunnel Doors. Unlock both sets of doors

for the lifeguards to enter at 5:50. Dont forget to lock these doors again at

6:15.

Unlocking Offices and Scoreboard

After you have unlocked the Tunnel, take the set of keys to the office hallway.

Unlock the doors at both ends of the hallway and unlock the wooden doors at

the middle of the hallway. (ehh)

At the end of the hallway is Terrys office. Unlock it and proceed to turn on

the scoreboard.

Special instructions for turning on the scoreboard.

o Also send up daily messages including birthdays, if needed.

Before going back into the office, check the orange juice cans in the

conference room. If any are expired, or we have less than two, notify the full

time staff immediately.

Office and further procedures

Enter the office from the hallway and check the lifeguard schedule and the

daily schedule. Notice which lifeguards are supposed to be at the pool at

5:50am. As you proceed with your job, dont forget the lifeguards.

Throughout your morning shift it is your job to keep them awake.Deck and Ice Coolers

Before you walk onto the deck, unlock the double doors to the hallway and

turn on the automatic doors.

Next fill up all the coolers with Ice and Water.

First take all the coolers on the deck to the storage room doors. You may find

different ways to carry them back and forth. (Show a clip of different people

doing different things to carry coolers).

Fill each of these up with ice to the brim inside the cooler.

Next carry the coolers to the water hose located by the double doors to the

50 meter. Make sure you fill all of these completely with water. After they

are filled, take them to their appropriate spots: The leisure pool, and dive

well. During long course a water cooler is placed near the office windows. In

short course season, a water cooler is placed by both the east and west pools.PAUSE: Lifeguards

At this time lifeguards are arriving for their morning shift. Be sure that they

take out a radio and a clipboard to the correct chairs. (Dont give them the

wrong clipboard).

Continue to Check the Deck.

Before or after guards arrive you should be finishing up your opening duties

by performing a deck check.

All pool signs are properly in place

Starting on the South end of the 50 meter pool, check the safety equipment

on the guard chairs:

o

Make sure the reaching pole is secureo Ensure that there is a red fanny pack attached to the chair

This should be complete with a green ready tag attached to the

side. If the tag is absent, or has a red tag, switch it out with the

spare red fanny pack located in the large blue cabinet in the

office.

o Lastly check that the backboard is properly placed at the back of the

chair, and the straps are neatly rolled up in place. Each backboard

must have a red tube attached to the back, in between the head

braces.

As you walk around the pool deck, look around the floor for trash and lost

and found objects.

Make sure the proper depth signs are in place around the 50 meter.

Double check the emergency doors around the pool deck and that emergency

socks and towels are in the correct spots.

When youve reached the Dive Well ensure that the tower gates are locked.

The Dry Erase Board

o Once most of your opening duties are finished, change the dry erase board to

match the scoreboard dates. The markers to the dry erase boards are located

in the office, on the blue counter next to the sub book and fitness log. Make

sure you change the date, and double check all the times associated with theday.

Wet Classroom

o Unlock the wet classroom and make sure everything has been cleaned up.

Leisure Pool

o Remember the Aquatic Center leisure pool is open at 7 am Monday- Friday, 8

am on Saturday, and 10 am on Sunday. These times could be subject to

change. (Show a person looking at the schedule).

windowsill.
