Jumping in the water on a hot day in Scranton

SCRANTON, LACKAWANNA COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — It certainly was a great day to head to the pool! 28/22 News stopped by the pool at McDade Park in Scranton, not to take a dip but to talk with people about the weather and cooling off.

The pool, as you can imagine, has been busier than usual during these hot and steamy days.

“I really love the bucket, the big one how it just dumps on top of you. It’s really fun,” said August Whelan from Dickson City.

“The pool is my favorite place, I like the deep end,” Olyphant resident Joncieo Tirado said.

The pool was so busy on Monday that they actually had to turn away guests due to capacity. That was not the case on Tuesday.
