Three More Pools Set to Open
Following the opening of Southern Hills pool, the Airport Park, David Raines, and Querbes pools are scheduled to welcome swimmers starting Tuesday, May 28. This marks the beginning of a summer filled with sunny days spent cooling off in the water.

For many, the pool provides a welcome escape from the scorching heat. A visitor remarked, “Besides the rain, it’s been super hot out here. So, yeah, they’ve been dying to get in the water.”
One young pool-goer eagerly shared, “Of course I want my friends to come out to the pool. They’re my friends, and I miss all my teachers from when I was little.”
