This is never welcome news for aqua-maniacs, but Barton Springs Pool will be closed for its annual almost-spring cleaning from Feb. 25 to March 10. Springwoods Pool is also due for some routine maintenance, which will close that pool for just two days, Feb. 21-22. To immerse yourself in other year-round pools in the meantime, visit AustinTexas.gov/pools. In other watery news, the city’s Aquatic Division is super-serious about recruiting lifeguards and is holding a hiring event at Fiesta Gardens at 2101 Jesse E. Segovia St. on Sunday, Feb. 26, 5-8 p.m. Prospective lifeguards will be able to fill out an application on-site and get signed up for lifeguard training. Applicants should bring their photo ID and Social Security cards to the event.
