Summary
Ad Astra Pool in Lenexa is finally reopening July 4 after an $8 million makeover—thanks to voter-approved sales tax funds—to fix hidden underground issues and deliver a modern splash. New features include a zero-depth entry, shade structures, three 25-yard lap lanes, a deep end with diving boards, and a 180-foot current channel for lazy river fun. A brand-new bathhouse and concession stand round out the upgrades. The surrounding park also got a facelift with a new access road, better shelters, and year-round restrooms. Hours: noon to 6 PM on July 4, then noon to 7:30 PM until August 9 (closed a few August days for staff). Admission: $7 for locals, $10 for others, with senior discounts and free entry for kids 2 and under.
