Happy kids and parents have been enjoying the opening of the Colorado City Swimming Pool. Turnout has been great and everyone is having a fun time.

Water aerobics are offered Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings from 7:30 to 8:30am, and an evening class Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6:00 to 7:00pm. Lap swimming is available Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 8:00 to 9:00am and Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings from 5:00 to 6:00pm. Gay Christie loves the aerobics class. She says, “You get out of it what you put into it. If you can’t participate to the full extent or pace that’s okay and you still get a benefit.” “Also, you don’t sweat!”
