Did they really ask u to get out after 1 hour session? Are we allowed to shower at the changing rooms? Expand Been at Jurong Lake almost every other night. Basically there will be an auto announcement played on speaker 15 mins before the hour slot ends. They'll let you know that you can take the opportunity to refresh yourself. No one chases anyone out or anything, just follow the rules and I think it's all good. Most people would be done swimming in 40mins anyway. Hardly see anyone swimming the full hour.

begleitung Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 In some pools they have a 50 mins countdown huge digital timer. At the end of 50 mins they will blow you out. I mean blow the whistle. Quote Link to comment
