We are introducing new drowning prevention technology to help keep our pools safer. 

The Lynxight system uses AI to provide real-time monitoring, risk detection, and instant alerts to enable our lifeguard team to respond up to six times faster to potential emergencies. 

The use of this technology will not change our current commitment to safety, but will add an additional layer of protection to help ensure everyone can enjoy our pools with even greater peace of mind. 

Installation is now complete, and the system is in its calibration phase, expected to go live in July.
