The director added roughly 200 people showed up to swim last year and expects even more this year because Pink Day falls on the February break.

“Kids are off school so they have all day to swim,” Dustan said. “With the waves and water slides being turned on at 1 p.m. I do expect a bigger turn out.”

According to Dustan, anyone who shows up wearing pink will get half off admission, something only 21 people took advantage of last year. Last year Pink Day raised roughly $300 for the Red Cross, a number Dustan hopes to beat this year.

However, one thing which won’t be included this year is the pink dye added to the water. Dustan said the water filters are “too good” and the dye was filtered too fast for anyone to notice the colouring last year.
