New (at least to me, LOL) written info on Pool Hopping

[CarolMN]

Maybe I missed it, but this is the first time I've seen it written that the quiet pool at BCV is off limits to pool hoppers. Anyone else catch this tidbit from the recent Member Clubhouse email?

Pool hopping reminder
Due to the high occupancy expected, Members may not "pool hop" from April 3-11, 2004. On other dates, if you're pool hopping at another resort, you may be asked to leave in order to accommodate registered Guests. Call ahead to the Front Desk of the destination resort to check pool availability, and visit dvcmember.com for updates.

Please also remember that unless you're a registered Guest of Disney's Yacht & Beach Club Resorts or Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge, pool hopping is never allowed at Stormalong Bay and Uzima Pool. Quiet pools at those resorts are also off-limits, unless you are a registered resort Guest. There are no exceptions to this policy.

Yes, I have seen that. I can't for the life of me figure out why there is no pool hopping at the quiet pool...

One reason we pool-hop is to experience another resort. I have never gone on a water slide at other resorts. I have though sat at the pool, spent many $$$ at the pool bar and then change and spend even more $$$$ at the resort`s restaurants. I believe Disney`s management would be happy with the result of our pool hopping.

I have seen the announcement before.

I think the slide at OKW is an indication that the days of pool hopping are numbered. I like the perk and hope it continues, but as DVC continues to grow with an additional large resort, pool hopping may be discontinued. I've also heard pool hopping will not be allowed at SSR. Too bad.

This has started showing up in the last few months. It's simply an explanation of the policy in place before. I guess they had to specify no PH to BCV quiet pool, I'm assuming some people weren't able to figure it out on their own.

I also noticed it for the first time in this last issue.
