  • Rent a Locker – Where is all your stuff going to go? You don’t want it just sitting out in the open. Rent a regular or family locker to protect your personal items.
  • Wear a Rash Guard – Not only will wearing a rash guard protect you from UV light, it also protects you from getting scratches on the slides!
  • Wear Water Shoes – The ground during the summer can get really hot and burn your feet. Bring shoes that can get wet to protect your feet!
