however the overnight visitors’ children under the age of 16 will be allowed only under parental supervision.
Who is going to enforce this :-?

I take it there will be a SANParks official on duty at the pool to enforce the above rule or it's just like many other rules that seem to be around for window dressing O**

Was quite surprised at Shingwedzi last year they had an HR on duty at the pool only allowing overnight visitors and monitoring at pool area. -O- -O-

Yeah that happens only at some camps but not all. Don't think it will happen at day visitors areas

Not nice that the pools will close at 4pm...I'm sure a lot of overnight guests enjoy a swim after a late-afternoon drive. 0-
