The city has two pools: Inskip Pool on Bruhin Road and Ed Cothren Pool on Reynolds Street. Both will open Saturday.
Pool hours are 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday
Admission is $5, but the city offers Splash Passes for frequent visits.
As for the pools themselves, Ed Cothren Pool offers a diving board, ramp, baby pool, concession stand and covered areas. Inskip Pool includes a high dive, two low dives, a wading pool, a volleyball court and covered pavilions.
Both pools are surrounded by parks as well.
