The Young Professionals of Ames, an organization affiliated with the Ames Chamber of Commerce, is sponsoring a free pool day Tuesday at Furman Aquatic Center.

At the event, Give for a Splash, participants will gain free entrance to the pool in exchange for a donated personal hygiene product. Those donations will go to Mid-Iowa Community Action.

Free entrance will be granted from 1 – 8 p.m. The rain date is set for 1 – 8 p.m. July 20.

The YPA said its goal for the event is to improve the quality of life for others, while giving people a chance to try out the new pool for free.

Recommended donation items include deodorant, toothbrushes, sunscreen and cotton balls.
