Is 102 degrees outdoors too hot for swimming?

Answer 1

A pool in our retirement community that is heated to 90 deg. F has been declared too warm for children. Mostly it was babies and toddlers who used the pool with adult supervision while another pool that is 81 degrees was used by older children and community adults. My grandson who is a skinny little kid turned blue within 15 mins. of using the colder pool and I started to shiver in that colder pool. He and I both liked the 90 deg. F. pool just fine as did the other grandparents and toddlers there. We are heart broken that we can no longer use this pool as they brought in a person from the opposite coast from us who tells us that 90 deg. F is too warm for us, that we have to sign waivers to even use it and that the children can no longer use the pool. There is another (indoor) pool at 87 deg. also but they won't let any kid in that pool. That one would be alright temperature wise for us but swimming indoors in summer is not that much fun. What kind of arguments can we use to get them to allow us to use that warmer, 90 deg. F pool? We had been using this pool for the last two years with no incidents.
