Party FAQ’s:
Q: Do I need to be a member of the Lochearn Pool to host a party at the pool?
A: Yes! Hosting parties at the pool is one of the many benefits of membership. In order to host a party at the pool, you must first become a member. Please see the membership page to learn more about becoming a member.
Q: How much will a party at the pool cost?
The cost of your party depends on the number of non-member party guests you have. Each of these party guests costs $10 each, while non-members are free.
PLEASE NOTE that the office/lifeguard staff will not collect fees from party guests. It is the party host’s responsibility to pay for the party, and if needed, collect funds from your guests.
Q: What kind of party can I have at the pool?
A: You can hold all sorts of parties! We welcome birthdays parties, graduations, retirement, sports teams, family reunions and so much more!
Q: Can I provide music or a D.J. at my party?
A: We do NOT allow D.J.’s to set up at the pool for individual member parties. Parties are held during regular business hours, so while we allow speakers, we ask that you keep music to a reasonable volume and play music that is not offensive to other members or our neighbors.
Q: Do I have to buy food from the snack bar or can I bring in my own food?
A: You may absolutely bring in your own food either prepared by you, catered, or you can use one of our grills to throw on some burgers and hot dogs. If you don’t want to bother, we encourage you to speak with the Snack Bar operator about ordering food from them!
Q: Will other members be at the pool during my party?
A: Yes. Parties can only be hosted during regular pool hours and while parties have exclusive access to the dedicated party area (behind the bath house) the pool will still be open to all members.
Q: How do I know if my dates is available?
A: As people reserve parties and the board confirms them, we add them to the public calendar. Please check the calendar for conflicting events or parties before requesting your party date.
Q: What is the maximum number of people I can have at a party?
A: We can accommodate parties of up to 125 people, however, that depends on our ability to have an adequate number of lifeguards on the day you selected. Please reach out to us at lochearnswim@gmail.com if you have questions.
Q: How do I book a party if I am a member?
A: It’s simple. Just fill out the Party Request Form on the website. We will notify you via e-mail as soon as the board approves your event.
Q: If my party is approved, when is payment due?
A: We require a $20 party request deposit. This will hold your space. Payment for the remainder of your balance is due before you leave the property after the party.
