People got to slide down the slide, hang out in a pool and float along the lazy river today in Andover, because the YMCA water park is back open, just a year after a tornado ripped through the city. “I’m happy about it because we used to have to drive far to go to other parks. Now we can drive closer,” exclaimed 10-year-old Elijah Jamerson. The water park has some new features, such as a splash pad and climbing areas. “I’m glad it’s open,” said Amber Lowen of Rose Hill. “We love the Andover Y. We come here every summer.” The YMCA says the park’s first two weeks of operation are for members only.
