Nicole Harbaruk-Syverson

POOL OPERATIONS MANAGER
Hi everyone. My name is Nicole and I’m the pool manager again this year. And I am so happy about that. I love working at the pool with all the young people. They keep me laughing, are creative and I always cherish the feeling of family we have by the end of the season.

My 3 favourite things are travel, I’m definitely a foodie (I love all kinds ) and friends, family and dogs .

I am looking forward to seeing everyone at pool
