Please pick up your personal items that have been left at the pool this summer before August 24th. After that they will be up for grabs and will be donated to Good Will at season's end.

Rose Rios is a 20 year old student at Texas State University with a love for swimming, being outdoors, and working around the water. She was a varsity swimmer in high school and has been life guarding since 2022, including experience as both a life guard and lead life guard at Schlitterbahn. I'm excited to be at the neighborhood pool this summer and look forward to getting to know the community while continuing to grow my experience as a life guard.
