🚨 One thing you need to know
All four outdoor pools in Overland Park are now open for the summer swim season.
Three of the pools opened as scheduled on Memorial Day weekend in late May, but the opening of the fourth, Bluejacket Pool, was delayed after a leak was discovered.
The city announced last week that the leak had been repaired and tested. The pool at 10101 Bond St. was set to open over the weekend.
Bluejacket, along with the city’s other three outdoor pools — Stonegate, the Tomahawk Ridge Aquatic Center and Young’s Pool — are open daily during the summer from noon to 7 p.m.
The city’s indoor pool facility at Matt Ross Community Center is also open daily. You can check out a more exact schedule here.
