Saturday's weather forecast calls for a high temperature of 62 degrees with rainfall.  Not exactly what the Shelbyville Parks and Recreation Department dreamed of for opening day at the Meridian Park Family Aquatic Center.

But still, it's Opening Day.  Director Karen Martin says it's a special time after a year missed due to Covid.  

Martin says they will open Saturday even with inclement weather.  She says even if attendance is low the staff can get something out of it.

As for Covid protocols, Martin says the main thing people should know is use common sense.  Such as, if you don't feel well, don't come.
