Overland Park will be forced to curtail its outdoor swimming program unless it can hire more lifeguards, which are in short supply there and elsewhere. “Right now we have enough lifeguards to open one outdoor pool this summer with full staffing,” Aquatics Supervisor Renee Reis said in a news release. “Aquatics is an incredibly fun operation, but safety has to remain our top priority. It’s simply not safe to operate pools without a full staff of lifeguards.”
