POOL

Dive In

Each year, in order to be eligible for access to the pool for the coming summer, new members must apply for club membership by January 15th and join the pool waitlist by March 31st of that year.

Currently, there is a 6-8 year wait to become a full-time pool member. However, if you are a member of the pool waitlist, you are allowed limited pool access each summer. To become a member of the waitlist, there is a one-time non-refundable $300 pool waitlist fee. Each year that you are on the waitlist, you will pay an annual waitlist member pool fee of $100; and will be given the option to purchase a limited number of daily passes/coupons to be used from July 5th–Labor Day. When you visit the pool, each individual (age 5 and over) will use one daily pass/coupon per visit.


One-time Waitlist Fee: $300
Annual Waitlist (after 1st year): $100
Post Waitlist Entry Fee: $750
Annual Family Dues (full members): $1,025
Guest Fee/Pool Coupon: $15

You may join the pool waitlist at any time. The March 31st deadline is to gain access to the pool for the coming summer. Meaning that, if you join the club as a new member after January 15th or the pool waitlist after March 31st of any specific year, you will need to wait until the summer of the following year to use the pool. But if you feel that you may like to be full-time pool members in the future, you may want to get your name on the waitlist sooner rather than later, so that you are ahead of others who may join the waitlist moving forward.

The pool usually opens the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend and closes the evening of Labor Day.

The Rules

  • All members must sign in with the check-in attendant when they arrive at the pool. (Please sign in accurately. This utilization information drives our ability to offer programs to wait list members.)

  • All guests must be signed in by a member. “Guests” must be accompanied by their member hosts at all times (pool or waitlist members)

  • Babysitters/Nannies may bring guests of the children, age 5 years of age and older. (Babysitters/Nannies may not bring their own guests)

  • Per City of Newton ordinances, diapers must not be changed in the pool area. There are changing tables in the restrooms for this purpose. This rule will be strictly enforced and failure to comply with this rule will be grounds for suspension from the pool.

  • Guests age 5 and older, will be assessed a fee of $15 or can be covered by a waitlist “pass” in order to use the pool.

  • Individual passes are not required for waitlist members under the age of 5.

  • Parents (or babysitters/nannies) are expected to closely supervise their children at all times, especially non-swimmers.

  • Babies and toddlers who are not toilet trained must wear waterproof diapers.

  • Please no glass around the pool area.

  • Children under the age of 10 must be accompanied by an adult (16 or older) in the pool area at all times. Please note that anyone who is not respecting the pool rules and obeying the lifeguards will be asked to leave the pool and Windsor Club grounds for the remainder of the day.

  • Per City of Newton ordinances, all food must be consumed either outside of the concrete pool area or in the designated pool deck area. This rule will be strictly enforced and failure to comply with this rule will be grounds for suspension from the pool.

  • The Pool Director’s judgment in all health and safety matters is final. Failure to comply with these rules shall be sufficient cause for immediate suspension of pool privileges by the pool staff. Severe or repeated violations may also be considered cause for cancellation of membership.

  • In order to ensure a fun and safe time for all, reckless or otherwise inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated. The Pool Staff is authorized to remove people from the pool area and Windsor Club grounds if their instructions are not followed.

  • If when checking in, there is a difference of opinion with the check-in attendant about eligibility or pool rules, please ask to speak with Gary DeMayo.
