Summer Heat Has Hit - Find Your Cooling Spot.

Outdoor Pools, Splash and Spray Parks.

June 20, 2016
Is the summer heat hitting you already? I am surprised that it's still popping back and forth from chilly to scorching. Since it's spring and the heat has hit over 80 already it's time to start thinking of where around town one can find someplace to cool off.  Get your swim suits, and towels ready to keep away the heat of summer.
