Swimmers will get a few extra days to take a dip this summer.

The Iola Municipal Pool, scheduled to close Sunday, will remain open through the week.

Interim City Administrator Corey Schinstock said Recreation Director Jason Bauer is managing the pool this week because the regular managers have left for college.

“After this week, we will absolutely run out of staff,” Schinstock said, noting school is set to start soon.

The pool was a month late in opening this year because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
