Sacramento public swimming pools treading water, limiting hours due to lifeguard shortage

Summer and swimming usually go hand-in-hand, but this season Sacramento city pools are seeing short staffing. Twelve of the 13 city swimming pools are shut down on certain days due to a lifeguard shortage. Sharon Matthews lives by Cabrillo pool, which is closed on Thursdays. "I noticed it's got odd hours and it's opened up in the afternoon and got limited hours," Matthews said.
