Rock' N River Closes Early August 18 to Welcome Fort Hood Families

Kristi Morgan — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 14:12:00 GMT

As you know, we are helping to support a unit from Fort Hood and we want to be able to help the families as well as the fighting soldiers. The City of Round Rock has invited Fort Hood families and adopt-a-unit friends to come and have a fun evening in Round Rock. The City has decided to close the Rock' N River early Monday, August 18, at 4 pm to give the families a private experience at our great family aquatics center.

We want the families to feel comforted and supported as well, and being able to provide a great evening of fun and play is a nice way to show we care!

Rock' N River will re-open Tuesday, August 19, for regular business hours.

Pool Closures

Kristi Morgan — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 14:24:00 GMT

The Round Rock summer season is coming to an end and pools will be closing within the next couple of weeks. It's sad, I know!

Lake Creek Pool will be the first to close on Sunday, August 17, Micki Krebsbach will close the following Sunday, August 24 and Rock' N River Family Aquatics Center will be the final pool to close on Monday, August 25.

Before you get too sad, Rock' N River will re-open one last time for the Labor Day weekend, Aug. 30- Sept. 1. Bring the kids and the family out to enjoy a refreshing and relaxing weekend!

So make sure to visit the pools before they close. Finalize those nearly perfect tans, cool off a couple more times and relax at your favorite pools.

I hope you have enjoyed your summer season, and the good news behind all this is that we are moving closer to cooler weather (slowly)!!

If you have any questions or would like to share any experiences you have had at the Round Rock pools, feel free to comment below. We really do love to hear from all of you!!
