Hi Neighbors,

The pool is going to remain open at this time.  We attempted to close it on Saturday so that the pool company could do additional work since 2 more people cut their feet on Friday. Unfortunately, when the pool was full of people even though there was a CLOSED sign on the door.  He did what he could on Sunday morning and hopefully all the glass is gone for good.  For now, the pool is open but please be aware of the possibility of leftover glass, so you are using the pool at your own risk.  If there is glass spotted again, we will close the pool to be completely drained.

With this being said, please understand that there are ABSOLUTELY NO GLASS ITEMS ALLOWED in the pool area. This includes goggles, swim masks, drink bottles, baby bottles, glass dishes, etc.  People are in this area bare footed, and we can not risk the chance of any more broken glass and putting our neighbors in danger.  None of us want to have the pool closed and the additional cleaning is an additional expense for the entire neighborhood. Please make smart choices AND if you see someone in the pool area with a banned item, please remind the neighbor it is not allowed and you can report it to the board at officers(at)oakhillsouth.net.

Guests–we have had complaints already about excessive number of guests at the pool. We love for our neighbors to have friends at the pool, but lets remember this is a private pool to be used by 147 homes, so lets be considerate about how many guests we have at the pool.  3-4 guests are no problem for normal pool use. If you want to have a birthday party, etc at the pool, please reach out to the board to get approved and we will post to our neighbors about the party so everyone will know we will have extra people at the pool. Please do try to limit party guests to 8-10. Also, anytime you bring a guest to the pool, your are responsible if they break rules or damage property.  We already have a section of the fence broken from people climbing over it.  It will be an expensive fix and hopefully the last one of the season.

Lastly, we have already had 2 instances where teenagers were in the pool after it has closed for the night. Pool hours are 10a-9pm with Adult only swim from 9p-10p. NO ONE is allowed to swim after 10p and the Lees Summit police will be called if anyone is trespassing in the pool after 10p.  If your child is caught in the pool after hours, your card will be suspended.

Hopefully this week will be the only rough week we have at the pool this summer. Lets all enjoy this pool season.
