Scheduled start-end time is 9am – 5pm. There will be coffee and bagels in the morning and sandwiches and cold drinks in the afternoon.

Please email activities@venetionpools.org or johndean09@comcast.net if interested. If enough members are, details will follow.
TAPS Stainless Steel Growlers
Want to bring a beer growler to the pool and wonder how you can get around that “no glass-thingy rule?” TAPS Craft Beers located at 1248 Clairmont Rd next to Los Loros will have double-walled, stainless steel growlers with the Venetian logo for the approximate price of $25 – $27 and will offer Venetian members a $2 discount on beer refills. This is in the works now, and more details will follow so stay tuned. http://tapscraftbeers.com/
