The High Volume Committee: A Collaborative Approach
Originally aired April 27, 2020
Katie Crysdale convened a committee of aquatic staff from across the USA to discuss the unique challenges faced by large-scale aquatic facilities post-COVID. We've been meeting weekly to discuss strategies, anticipating changes to health & safety, supplies, staffing, training, operations, communication, etc. We share our findings so you can make better decisions for your aquatic facility.
