    The kids might not be out of school yet, but Montgomery County’s Department of Recreation has already made a splash, making sure that its outdoor pools were open in time for Memorial Day.

    Gabe Albornoz, the director for the department, told WTOP that opening up the pools is just the start of what the county can offer this summer.

    He knows that in the current economy, many teenagers are looking for extra income.

    “We know that we need to do more, and youth employment is an area that we are particularly interested in investing more in,” Albornoz said.
