WEATHER CANCELLATIONS
Participants may call (402) 296-5800 for weather cancellation information. Notifications are also sent via phone calls, facebook posts and emails. General rule of thumb, if schools cancel or start late, morning group classes will be cancelled and evening classes and swimming lessons will be reevaluated 2hrs before the first scheduled afternoon class. Youth sports and activities will be cancelled if school is cancelled regardless of the weather conditions in the afternoon/evening. For the indoor/outdoor pools, we use a Flash-to-Bang count of 30 seconds. If we hear the thunder within 30 seconds of seeing the lightning strike, all guests will be asked to leave the pool and seek shelter for a minimum of 30 minutes.
