Rentals impact municipal pool schedule

From the Ada Municipal Pool:

"We are jam packed with private rentals this weekend (July 30-31) so here are some notes to know!

"Our morning rentals will go until 1:00 p.m. Therefore, our doors will open slightly after 1:00 today and tomorrow to make sure all of the rental guests are able to head out.

"Our evening rentals were bumped up to 7:00-9:00 p.m. Saturday and Sunday due to our low attendance numbers in the evenings the past week. Today and tomorrow the pool will close at 6:45 p.m. to allow time to clean up between our daily swim and rental times.

"We hope to see you and thank you for understanding these small changes for the weekend!"
