NEW YORK CITY—–(77WABC)
The New York City Parks Department’s outdoor pools are set to open for the season at full capacity this weekend.
Parks Commissioner Mitchell Silver was on hand at Van Cortlandt Pool in the Bronx Thursday morning and took part in the first splash of the summer with kids from the Kingsbridge Heights Community Center.
Face coverings will be required to enter the facility.
Social Distancing is still required, but good luck trying to get your kids to follow that.
