Oak Grove HOA Amenities Area Rules and Guidelines:
MEMBERS ONLY
The pool is reserved for the exclusive use of Members of the Oak Grove Homeowners Association of Pike, Inc. (OGHOA) and their accompanied guests. A code is required for admittance to the Amenities Area. Only Members and residents in good standing will have access to amenities and be issued the code. Without a lifeguard we all must pitch in to make sure the pool is enjoyable and safe for all homeowners and guests.
All Members are to familiarize themselves, their children and their guests with the Amenities Area Rules and Guidelines. Members are responsible for the behavior of their children and guests at all times.
All persons using the Amenities Area will do so at their own risk. OGHOA assumes no responsibility for accidents or injury in connection with such use, or for the loss or damage to personal property.
POOL and CLUBHOUSE
- Only proper swimming apparel will be allowed in the pool. NO SHORTS, CUT-OFFS OR UNDERWEAR will be permitted. Children in diapers are REQUIRED to wear swim diapers.
- No running is allowed in the pool area.
- No solo swimming is allowed.

- When listening to music, be considerate of others.

- If there is a POOL CLOSED sign posted, DO NOT ENTER THE POOL AREA. This sign means the pool and/or surrounding area has been contaminated or is being cleaned.
- Comments and complaints should be brought to the attention of the Board of Directors.
- Any Members of the OGHOA who observe a person unknown to them using the Clubhouse or Pool Area should ask if that person is a resident or guest. If the unknown person is neither, or if the Guest is not accompanied by a Member, then the Member should ask him/her to leave the premises. This is for the safety of the members, their children and guests. If there is a time that you would like a member of your immediate family to use the pool, but you are unable to accompany them, contact a Board member for approval prior to the desired date of use.
