Pool opening delayed a day

The Eudora Aquatic Center, 1638 Elm St., will open at 1 p.m. Saturday instead of today.

The opening was tentatively scheduled for this afternoon, but city officials opted for the delay because of three days of wet weather last week.

The main entrance will be on the north side of the building near the slide. There will be a dedication ceremony with prizes and free hot dogs. Parking for the pool will be at Laws Field.

The new pool will have a slide, a lazy river, six lanes, a diving well and zero-depth entry.
