Pool Rules
Babysitters 18 years or older may bring member children under their supervision to the pool. The babysitter should bring the parents' pool card, and the parents are considered guests of the minor child. Only 2 guests are allowed: 1 babysitter and 1 other guest. If the babysitter will be with your child all summer, please drop off a note at the clubhouse drop box along with a copy of the sitter's license to explain that the sitter will be at the pool all summer.

Magnolia Springs Lakes Information
C&Rs Article VI Section 20: No swimming, ice skating, or boats allowed on lakes.
Catch-and-Release Policy: We need to remove bluegill and smaller bass from both lakes. You should take all bluegill in addition to bass up to 12-14 inches out of the lakes. They are excellent to eat. If you prefer not to keep these small fish, they may be released in the stream below the LOWER DAM. Please release all bass larger than 12-14 inches back into the lakes. We also have large catfish, 10-12 pounds, in the lower lake, stocked five years ago. Feel free to take or release as desired.
Turtles: We have snapping turtles (among many other species), some quite large. They are not aggressive but will bite if cornered or provoked. Their bite is quite dangerous, and they have been known to take fingers. They can also cause severe injury to animals, such as dogs. Just let them alone. Warn your children to leave them alone. If hooked while fishing, cut the line about 18 inches from the turtle. Do not attempt to remove the hook. Hooks are cheap, and the turtle will be happy. The hook will be harmless to the turtle and will dissolve over a short period of time.
Snakes: Less and less a problem over the last two years. One report last year and one a couple of weeks ago. We have Eastern/Banded water snakes in rocks in both dams (which closely resemble Copperheads) and other non-poisonous varieties throughout the development. They are all harmless but will bite if provoked or cornered. I remain available to remove snakes from your property. Shovel/hoe and green cans also work. Or just let them be. They will go away.
