The City of Corsicana is getting ready to celebrate the summer season with the opening of the Jester Park and Bunert Park public pools in late May, with updated hours, admission prices and a slate of seasonal programs planned at the two locations.
Both pools are scheduled to open Wednesday, May 27, with operating hours for the pools running Wednesday through Saturday from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. Jester Park Pool will also be open Sundays from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., while Bunert Park Pool will remain closed on Sundays.
Admission prices will vary by location. At Jester Park Pool, entry is $5 for ages 11 and under and $8 for those 12 and older. Bunert Park Pool will charge $3 for ages 11 and under and $5 for ages 12 and older.
Pool party reservations will be available beginning May 7, with in-person registration starting at 8:30 a.m. at the Parks and Recreation office. After that date, reservations may be made by phone. Scheduled party times will include morning sessions from 10 a.m. to noon and evening sessions from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
Spray parks in Corsicana are set to open earlier, beginning May 8, and will operate daily from 10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. through Sept. 8.
In addition to regular swim hours, the city has scheduled three free swim days on June 5, July 3, and Aug. 1.
The seasonal calendar also includes a “Pooch Paddle” event set for from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Aug. 2 at Jester Park Pool, allowing dogs to enter the pool following the close of the regular season. This event is in partnership with the Humane Society of Navarro County.
City guidelines require proper swimsuit attire for entry, and all guests entering the facility must pay admission. Children aged 10 and under must be accompanied by an adult.
The pool season is scheduled to conclude Saturday, Aug. 1, marking the end of regular summer operations for both facilities.
