A cool pool update

Your favorite oasis might be open just a little longer. “Due to the ongoing heatwave and sufficient lifeguard staffing, six seasonal pools will extend operations through September 24,” the city announced on Wednesday. Those swimming spots are Garrison, Govalle, Mabel Davis, Northwest, Shipe and Walnut Creek. Additionally, city splash pads will be open until Oct. 31. Austin’s year-round pools are Bartholomew, Barton Springs, Big Stacy, Deep Eddy and Springwoods. The city also announced this week that all city pools except Barton Springs and Deep Eddy will close early at 4 p.m. on Aug. 13. Get more info on pool hours at austintexas.gov/pools.
