With safety of our patrons and our lifeguards we have made the decision to change our hours up slightly. We will be closing from 5:00 to 5:30 to give everyone a brief break from the sun and heat. We appreciate all of your understanding and also are enjoying seeing everyone enjoying the pool! Thank you 😁😁
