Why 'Water' Water?
Why do they water the pool? This question has most likely gone through minds of anyone who has ever visited or walked by the Auburn outdoor pool just outside the Student Activities Center and noticed the large amounts of water being sprayed into the pool at both ends.It makes perfect sense to have a sprinkler system set up on a lawn to keep the grass and flowers hydrated and help them grow, but why water something like a pool that already has 600,000 gallons of water in it?The answer to that question actually makes sense, believe it or not."It's to cool off the water," said pool supervisor Megan Hampton.
