Pool Workday – Saturday, March 28 from 8am – 2pm (Rain Date – Saturday, April 11) This is your chance to
help get the pool ready for the season! Volunteers will have a choice to earn a $10 concession credit (max $20 credit per family) OR 4 guest passes (a $40 value) by spending a minimum of four hours helping to spruce up our pool grounds & landscaping. Make sure you check in at the breezeway upon arrival. For safety reasons, no children under the age of 12 please. Middle & High Schoolers: your volunteer hours qualify for Crosby Scholars, Scouting, etc – be sure to bring the appropriate form for your program. Join us in preparing the pool for our summer season! Bring your hats, gloves, rakes, shovels, hedge clippers, etc. and help make the pool grounds beautiful!

Mark your calendar: Opening Day is Saturday, May 23! The pool will be open from 10am – 8pm. As in
years past, this will be a FREE GUEST DAY — bring your friends who may be interested in joining Willow Run. The world-famous Willow Run Grill will be open on Opening Day, Memorial Day, July 4th and Labor Day from 11am – 2pm each day. The $35 “Family Meal Deal” is still available at the grill for a family of five (+ $5 for each additional immediate family member on the day of the event).

Everyone loves a pool party! The pool is available for members during and after pool hours to rent for
birthday parties, youth groups, sports teams, meetings, or get-togethers with friends and/or family. ALL parties must be reserved so we can provide adequate lifeguard coverage and deck space. Please note that dates, times, and number of guests are subject to pool guidelines and pool availability. To reserve your date, contact Vickie Jellar at 336-414-1735.
