We, the undersigned, members of the Rye Golf Club, are in support of maintaining a consistent pool temperature for the duration of the summer of no lower than 82 degrees Fahrenheit. The American Red Cross suggests this temperature for children and the elderly to prevent increased heartbeat and heavy breathing. We feel that maintaining this temperature will allow a more enjoyable and comfortable experience for club members of all ages.

I really never expected so many people to feel this strongly about the pool water being warmer but here we are and honestly it feels great to know I am not the only one shivering out there. I have been peeking at the comments and it is wild how many of you have similar stories about trying to swim laps only to come out feeling like a popsicle while the staff just stares at the thermostat like it is a state secret.

82 is the bare minimum for a comfortable swim. Tired of shivering in a pool that is supposed to be relaxing.

The water is freezing lately. My kids have blue lips after ten mins. Please just turn the heater up a bit.

Way too cold. Seriously need to keep it at least 82 so the elderly members can actually use it.
