The short season for Seattle Parks-operated wading pools is ending this week for all but a few around the city. Three of West Seattle’s four wading pools have their final days this week – Delridge on Friday, Hiawatha on Saturday, and EC Hughes on Sunday. But as usual, the Lincoln Park wading pool and Highland Park spraypark will continue daily operation through Labor Day. Locations and schedules are all listed here.

Why on earth would the city find it at all acceptable to end wadding pools right at the hottest time of the year? The dog days of summer through ALL of August are when they would be needed most. Everyday I become more and more convinced that the government, at every level, hates the citizens they are supposed to serve.
