For the first time in two years, city pools will open on Monday. People who live close to the Minisa and McAfee pools say they are thrilled to have a place to hang out this summer but are happier that neighborhood kids can still make a splash this summer. Wichita swimmers will have two renovated spots to cool off in. McAfee and Minisa were set to be closed, but the city council saved them. “I thought, ‘Well, they’ve taken away some other pools, so this one—because of its age—could be the same thing happening,’” Cecilia Palta, who lives in the Minisa Park area said. “But I’m really glad that they decided with certain districts to keep those neighborhood pools open.”
