Atkinson Pool is reopening this weekend in Henderson.
Opening day is Saturday, July 3.
The original plan was to reopen for Memorial Day weekend, but city officials say they were unable to hire enough lifeguards to operate the pool safely.
After making a couple of tweaks in eligible age for employment as a lifeguard and the per-hour pay scale for the position, officials say the city has now trained, certified and hired adequate staff to operate the pool.
The final day of operation at Atkinson Pool will be August 9.
If staffing allows, the parks department may keep the pool open on weekends through Labor Day.
