There will not be timed tickets for COVID-19 pandemic spacing concerns like the 2022 April Pools Day event.
City lifeguards will be in and around the water at the April Pools Day event.
April Pools Day has traditionally been the kickoff event to warm weather, family time around the pool, a reminder to keep water fun and to bring attention to the very serious threat of drowning.
