Non-member Categories
Authorized users of Granite Facilities without voting privileges will be of the following categories: - Sabbatical – a member who chooses to not use the pool for a calendar year, but retains the privilege of re-activating their membership upon payment of the next year’s annual fee without initiation fees. A member in good standing from the previous year may exercise this option once during the member’s involvement with the pool, or longer with the leave of the Directors for good cause. During the sabbatical year, the member does not have the rights or privileges of members in good standing.
- Nanny/Babysitter – any membership category with children in need of supervision at the pool may add a nanny/babysitter member to their membership for an additional yearly fee to be set by the Directors. Nanny/Babysitter members may access Granite Facilities with the member’s children for whom they are responsible only and are not granted separate rights and privileges as members in good standing.
- Guest – a guest is anyone not covered in any above membership/non-membership category. Guests may access the pool and other facilities when in the company of a recognized member/non-member. Guest access is limited to a set number of visits per season as set out by the Directors and allowed upon the payment of guest fee to be set by the Directors. Guests include family members of members who do not live under the same roof on a full-time basis, or other residents of a single membership household.
