How Many Lifeguards Will I Need for My Party?
Our Lifeguard Staffing Policies
• Parties of 25 people or less will require a minimum of one lifeguard
• Parties of 26 to 50 people will require a minimum of two lifeguards
• Parties of 51 to 75 people will require a minimum of three lifeguards
• Larger parties will require additional lifeguards.
Ultimately, the staffing director will determine the final number of lifeguards needed. All parties have to include the TOTAL number of attendees for the party (this includes swimmers and non-swimmers). The lifeguards are responsible for anyone on the pool deck/area.
Sweetwater Pools generally supplies additional guards for a party due to unexpected guests. For example, if your party brings 30 extra people to the pool, we want to ensure the safety of all involved. You will still need an additional guard even if most of the attendees are members of the pool.
**Please note if more guests attend the party than what is stated on pool party request form we will charge you or bill your club if an extra guard or supervisor has to be called in. Safety is our number one priority!!!
What if I Need to Cancel My Party?
Please see our Pool Party Policies page for more information on our cancellation policies.Do I Need a Lifeguard if My Party Consists of Current Members or Residents?Yes, all parties of 12 or more people must be registered. Please remember your total number must include all party attendees (swimmers and non-swimmers).
Do I Need a Lifeguard if My Party Consists of Current Members or Residents?
Yes. All parties of 12 or more people must be registered in advance. Please remember that your total guest count includes everyone attending the party—both swimmers and non-swimmers. Our pools are staffed according to the expected bather load on a normal day. An unregistered party of 12 or more people, even when all attendees are members or residents, can significantly increase the number of people on the pool deck and impact overall pool safety. If a party is not registered in advance, portions of the pool may need to be temporarily closed to ensure our lifeguards can safely and effectively monitor their assigned zones.
