TPOA Community POOL
We have been operating the TPOA Pool facility now for two full months under new management by Grigsby Pools, Bob McDonald, and myself. The pool was closed in the past on Mondays for cleaning and maintenance, we changed that to Tuesday to match the day that Grigsby Pools performs their duties. After much discussion we all agree that it is not necessary to close the pool all day long on Tuesdays. Because we are monitoring the water chemical balance every day, Grigsby pools only needs the pool closed for a few hours on Tuesday morning, typically 10 am - noon, due to shocking the pool with additional chlorine. We will place the “Closed for Maintenance” sign out after we shock the pool and will remove it when it is at safe chemical levels to swim, typically a few hours later. Bob or I are at the facility every morning if you have any questions or comments. There are security cameras installed now that are monitored 24/7/365. We ask that you help keep the facility clean, do NOT bring glass containers onto the pool deck, abide by the TPOA and State of Texas Rules as posted. The signage around the facility is now in compliance with the State and consists of the following:
- "WARNING-NO LIFEGUARD ON DUTY" (Where no lifeguard required or provided.)
- "NO DIVING" and International No Diving Symbol (Where no lifeguard required or provided.)
- "IN CASE OF EMERGENCY, DIAL 911" (Address is 471 CR 2603, Pittsburg, TX 75686)
- An EMERGENCY phone capable of only dialing 911 is installed.
- Hours of Operation 08:00 AM to 10:00 PM daily (Closed Tuesday mornings for maintenance.)
- Maximum User Load Limit 108 people
- "PETS IN THE POOL ARE PROHIBITED"
- "DO NOT SWIM IF YOU HAVE BEEN ILL WITH DIARRHEA WITHIN THE PAST 2 WEEKS"
- "CHANGING DIAPERS WITHIN 6 FEET OF THE POOL IS PROHIBITED"
- "GLASS ITEMS NOT ALLOWED IN THE POOL YARD"
- "PERSONS UNDER THE AGE OF 14 MUST NOT BE IN THE POOL WITHOUT ADULT SUPERVISION"
- "EXTENDED BREATH HOLDING ACTIVITIES ARE DANGEROUS AND PROHIBITED"
- Additional TPOA Rules are:
- NO Food, Animals, Smoking, Profanity, Bottles or Glass, Alcohol or Drugs, Running or horse playing.
- No cutoffs – swimsuits only.
- All guests must be accompanied by an adult MEMBER.
Other concerns we have are as follows:
- The throwable ring buoys are for Emergency Use Only, they are not pool toys!
- There is a female who has not learned to flush the toilet after use, parents we need your help please.
- Juveniles have been caught twice between 2-3 am and the Sheriff has been called both times. Trespassing on a young person’s record is a serious offense, again parents we need your help please. The card holder risks having their access card revoked.
- The TPOA community pool is an asset to us all. We need adults and parents to help us keep the facility clean and safe!
If there are any problems with the pool and or equipment contact me at john.thornton.tpoa@gmail.com.

Dear Property Owner,
We are located within the Thunderbird Point Subdivision but serve many of the surrounding communities, including Hills Point, Pistol Mills, Oak Ridge, Sunset Bay, Meadows Lake, "The Point", Eagle Shores, etc. TVFD works closely with the Pittsburg Fire Department and our fire fighters are on call 24/7! We are "first responders" as often we can get to the fire ahead of other departments depending on the location of the event.
TVFD is not only about fires. We respond to medical emergencies in our community before the ambulance arrives which can mean the difference between life and death, especially in rural areas.
In our continuing effort to raise funds and recruit members, we have held numerous fund raisers including several fish fry's, gumbo cook off's, chili cook off's, and pancake breakfasts. We have used some of these funds to buy "bunker gear" which is our protective garments, a fire engine truck, install a flag pole at the firehouse, maintain our two brush fire trucks, purchase a pump so that we can take water from the lake where appropriate, add a new ladder and fire extinguishers so that our volunteers can go into harms way as fully prepared as possible. Fire fighting is very important to our community and requires a fair amount of funds to keep operating! Donations are encouraged and we thank you for your continued support!
If you would like to explore the possibility of joining our Department, please contact TVFD Board President Darrell Corry at darrell610.dc@gmail.com.
Emergency Response teams NEED you to have your 911 residence address clearly displayed on your property! Reflective numbers and street name clearly marked work best at night. Every second counts and wasting time trying to find your address can mean life or death!
