Facility Rules and Regulations
ARC Pool Water Temperature: Our water temperature varies from 83 to 86 degrees Fahrenheit (28 to 30 degrees Celsius) year round.This is the most comfortable temperature for typical water fitness classes and general aquatic programming. This allows the body to react and respond normally to the onset of exercise and the accompanying increase in body temperature. Cooling benefits are still felt and there is little risk of overheating.
Deep Water Lifeguard Class
Our detailed training includes both testing of hands-on skills as well as comprehension on written tests. The certification, which includes First Aid, CPR and AED training, is valid for two years upon completion and is accepted nationwide. Students must pass a pre-course swimming skills test prior to the start of the course. Please make sure you have a swimsuit, towel, and a change of clothes.
Classroom work will be held at the Angleton Recreation Center while pool items will be held at the Rancho Isabella Pool. Participants will meet at the Angleton Recreation Center. Spacing is limited.
Safety Covid protocols will be in place including wearing a mask except when preform.
