Marais Pool Rules Reminder

 

As pool utilization is peaking, just a reminder that we have strict guidelines regarding pool usage. The DHEC rules are posted on the fence by the shower, and a couple key rules are no glass, pets or smoking allowed in the pool or deck area. Please review and adhere to all DHEC and smoking rules.

 

Another key rule specific to Marais deals with pool access and utilization by visitors/guests. Owners/renters are allowed to bring daytime visitors/guests to the pool with them, numbers within reason. Guests of owners/renters temporarily residing in Marais are allowed access to the pool, using the assigned fob, with or without the owner/resident being present.

 

Fobs are not to be shared with daytime visitors/guests, without the owner/renter being present at the pool. This includes local family members who are not residing in Marais. Loaning fobs and allowing access to the pool, outside of the aforementioned guidelines, can result in the fob being disabled and pool privileges being suspended.

 

If an owner/renter would like to plan a party, please communicate and coordinate with the Marais property manager or pool committee (Marc Retchin or Jim Bennett). We want to ensure that there are no conflicts with parking, seating, other parties and for the rest of Marais owners/renters.

 

If you want to move furniture while using the pool, please return it where it was when you are done, as the pool deck is maintained by volunteers.

 

Lastly, be sure to discard trash, including napkins, cans, wrappers, etc. Thanks in advance for your understanding and assistance. Marc

 

 

 

               Quick Fact Friday

 

 

On this day one hundred years ago, the Evening Post newspaper reported that the Mount Pleasant Baseball Club recently defeated the McClellanville team by a score of 8 to 2, and the next month they would face a double header against Moncks Corner. Mount Pleasant won both games, the first with a no-hit/no-run score of 4 to 0. The article covering this game mentioned the names of a handful of players, including Wagener and Blanchard (pitchers), McCants, Simmons, and Freeman (batters), Iseman (catcher), and Guilas and Crouch (umpires). This amateur team started to be mentioned in local papers at least as early as 1908, when they defeated the team from Charleston, and they would often practice and play at the picnic grounds of Alhambra Hall. The club, or some iteration of it, still existed as late as 1949 when they played against the American Legion Juniors team for Post No. 135.
