Rutherford Community Pool

Being a water watcher involves more than sitting and observing. Follow the 15-minute rule to manage your supervision and keep everyone safe.

Here's how it works:

1️⃣ Change Positions or Water Watchers: Every 15 minutes, shift your position or trade places with a capable adult around the pool or water area. This allows you to have a fresh perspective and better visibility of all swimmers.

2️⃣ Active Scanning: Be sure to actively scan the water and surroundings. Keep a watchful eye on every swimmer and be aware of any potential hazards or obstructions.

3️⃣ Clear Areas: As you change positions, take a moment to clear any areas that may obstruct your line of sight or impede a potential rescue. Remove toys, floatation devices, or other objects that could hinder a safe response.

By practicing the 15-minute rule, you actively engage in continuous water supervision, ensuring the safety of those in and around the water. Stay vigilant, stay proactive, and be ready to respond if needed!
