(ABC 6 News) - With safety being a concern as the area experiences heat indexes nudging close to 100°.
The Salvation Army in Rochester continues to be a resource for people to use during hot weather.
Cold water bottles are always available to all, in addition to public restrooms, and an air-conditioned day center. The space can support as many as 150 people at a time, all of whom are welcome to partake of the daily meal The Salvation Army serves from 11:30-12:30 in the afternoon.
"We try to make sure there are no barriers for people who need our resources, so if you come in and you need a shower and you need a meal it's all here for you, All we do is ask the people to sign in names so we can keep track of those that come in, but there is no requirement to get in and use this service," said Rebecca Snapp, the Salvation Army Director of Community Engagement.
