Seattle Parks has just announced its summer aquatics hours. We’ve already reported on the Colman Pool schedule – what’s brand-new today is wading pool/spraypark hours. First to be open will be West Seattle’s lone spraypark, Highland Park (1100 SW Cloverdale), with daily operation 5/23 through 9/7, 11 am to 8 pm every day.

Then come the wading pools (a quick look at last year’s schedule shows they’re opening, and closing, later than last year):

Lincoln Park – 6/27-9/7, every day, noon-7 pm
E.C. Hughes Playground – 6/29-8/23, Mondays, Tuesdays, Sundays, noon-7 pm
Delridge Community Center – 7/1-8/21, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, noon-5:30 pm
Hiawatha Community Center – 7/2-8/22, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, noon-5:30 pm

We’ll link the full citywide announcement when it’s up on the city website. (UPDATE: Here it is.)

    Staffing the 3 wading pools that aren’t Lincoln park for a total of ~25 days for the entire year seems like a criminal waste of infrastructure. If Parks can’t hire 2-3 extra kids to run the pools for the entire summer should use all that capital money from the Parks district to put in splash pads.

Sorry, comment time is over.
