Swim season is officially upon us
Monday, June 10, 2024 by Elizabeth Pagano
Six more pools and the temporary bathhouse at Barton Springs Pool open today. Civitan, Kennemer, Metz, Parque Zaragoza, Stacy Wading and West Austin pools open today, joining a whole bunch of other pools and splash pads across the city that were already in operation as a way to beat our already-in-progress heat. A list of pools and their operating status can be found here. The Joan Means Khabele Bathhouse at Barton Springs is closed for renovations until spring 2025.
