During the first 50 of warm-up I spotted poop this morning. I confirmed it on the 2nd 50 and got out to tell the coach. Eventually they closed the pool, cleaned it out and threw in some chlorine directly in to the pool. But then they reopened about 30 min later. I was a bit shocked that they opened it so soon. The pool is a 50 meter x 25 yard pool so pretty big and they only threw in one 5 gal bucket of chlorine before letting us all back in. Does that sound right? If I remember my life guarding days right, poop means several hours of shutting down.
I was disappointed to have the workout suspended but I certainly didn't want to risk us getting sick, either.

This case is rather bad as it seems to have stayed in the pool overnight! I think they should drain the pool completely.
part of the signup says that if your kid poops
Sounds like a good rule, but I wonder whether it has ever been actually applied to anyone. I tend to think it's very unlikely to catch the kid who did it.
And who says only kids are the ones that could have done it? Once when I lived in a Y, I found a whole "well formed" piece of poop in the shower. I knew there were no kids there.
