CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. (KFVS) - If you want to beat the heat while exercising this summer, Cape Splash is the place to be.
You can participate in river walking on Mondays through Thursdays from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. or Mondays through Wednesdays from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m.
They say seven and a half laps around the lazy river equals one mile.
Autumn Heisserer, a lifeguard at the pool, shared what she loves about the river walk.
“It’s really nice just seeing them, and them telling me how they get to cool off and they feel a lot better,” Heisserer said. “It’s nice for them to be able to go to work and then come here, and just kind of meet new friends and be together.”
