After opening late this season several amenities at the Jones Aquatic Center are now closing early.
According to a social media post from the JAC the lazy river, slides and splash pad will be closed for the remainder of the season. Maintenance issues are listed as the reason for the closure.
According to Jennifer Kraus, Emporia Recreation Commission Assistant Director of Business, these are the same issues that prevented the amenities from opening on time earlier this year.
The main pool will remain open and hours of operation will stay the same. The pool season will conclude Aug. 14.
