City Adjusts El Paso Spray Parks Hours, Now Open Longer
Just in time for Memorial Day weekend and the inevitable super-hot days that are coming, the City of El Paso has updated the hours of operation for all of the spray parks. According to a social media post on the El Paso Parks and Recreation account, all nine spray parks are now operational from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
