A lifeguard shortage in the region is forcing Clarkstown to shut down one of its public pools this weekend.
So if you're looking to take a dip and cool down officials say to avoid Congers pool and instead swim at one of the town's other two facilities - Germonds Pool in West Nyack or Lake Nanuet.
The pool will officially close on Saturday, Aug. 14.
The town asks anyone who's interested in becoming a lifeguard to help end the shortage to call them at 845-639-6200.
