We apologize for this situation and have looked into our chemical logs for the day. Our logs are updated hourly and show that all chlorine levels were maintained within the prescribed amounts as dictated by the Texas Administrative Code (between part per million and parts per
million). Throughout the day, the chlorine level was maintained between parts per million and parts per million. As a comparison, typical drinking water is at part per million and Bleach detergent in laundry is at parts per million.With over 3,guests in the park that day in addition to lifeguards, all would have experienced the bleaching that you have described. Much like pouring bleach into a washing machine, all would be affected not just a few.
There are several other reasons that could have caused the bleaching out that you have described: age of swimsuits, were swimsuits ever placed in the dryer, were swimsuits washed out with freshwater prior to washing, what material were the swimsuits made out of (cotton does not hold up to repeated usage in a swimming pool), was the swimsuit material treated for chlorine resistance (should say on the tag when you purchase the swimsuit), sunlight may also bleach out a swimsuit (was your swimsuit UV and UVA protected)
