The Calypso Cove pools opened for the summer on June 7. Individuals and families can now enjoy the pools and slides seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Mayor Arlene Schwartz is pleased that the pool complex is now open to the public and said residents can enjoy swimming and various fun activities there. There is a water playground with new slides and a tipping bucket that dumps water on children while they swim.
Free swim lessons are available for children eight years old and younger at Calypso Cove, according to Schwartz.
