COVID-19 Update-IWU Pool: The team has approval to use IWU's pool for CIMST practices on Monday & Wednesday mornings from 5:30 - 6:30 a.m. There are COVID-19 restrictions that must be strictly followed. Any non-compliance will result in loss of access to the IWU pool for the entire team:- The Shirk Center will be locked until 5:15 a.m. and remain open until 5:25.
- CIMST members are to use the back/north entrance by the pool (not Emerson Street) and can wait in your car or at the door with proper social distancing.
- Masks are required to enter the building and pool. They are to be worn at all times except when in the water.
- Forehead temperature will be taken and recorded upon entering the building. Temperatures above 100.3 or symptoms of current illness will not be allowed to swim.
- CIMST members will use the double doors in the lobby to enter the pool and hands must be sanitized before entering (sanitizer provided by the team).

- Upon entering the pool, there are pieces of duct tape on the deck for belongings. These are separated to comply with social distancing.

- Space must be reserved for each practice. If you do not reserve a space by 6:00 PM of the day before the practice, you will not be allowed to swim. Here is the link: Practice Reservations
Since it will take several minutes to handle the entrance to the building, practice will be 50 - 55 minutes in length. There will be a "hard" exit from the water at 6:30 a.m. Note that if you arrive at the building after 5:25 a.m., you will not be able to swim that morning.
