Written by and Photos by Mark Ivins: On June 28, Sunset Pool hosted an Adult Glow Swim event. With admission each person received two glow sticks.
Participants applied glow paint to their bodies and adorned glow sticks to their wrists, necks, ankles and even made hats out of them. Then they were off to the pool.
As sunset and the evening began, about 200 people enjoyed floating, lounging, diving and water sliding.
The event organizers include Yolanda Leon-Duarte, Claire McCoy and Luke Diede.
