Local pools will be a popular destination this weekend.
With temperatures reaching high numbers, people will be looking for any way to cool off. While swimming is a great way to remain cool, it's very important that you take the time to make sure your body is properly hydrated and rested. Staff at Schoonover Pool will be prepared for large crowds of people this weekend.
"We still run 15-minute breaks to get the kids out of the pool. The concession stand is open to make sure they can hydrate. Gatorade and water in them. Sundays we have a lot of families come out so expect to see an increase in that this Sunday," said Ashley McKinney, pool manager at Schoonover Park.
Schoonover is extending its hours until nine o'clock Friday, Saturday, and Sunday as well.
