SPOKANE, Wash. It is something families missed out on last year a trip to a local aquatic center. That is changing this summer.
The City of Spokane, Spokane County and Spokane Valley are all planning to open their aquatic centers for the summer.
Spokane Parks and Recreation asked the City Council for $220,000 to help offset some costs. On Monday night, council members approved it unanimously. It is not clear if the money will come from the American Rescue Plan Act or somewhere else, but Parks and Rec got the green light to prepare.
“It’s really nice to just start activating these faculties to welcome people back,” said Josh Oakes, Recreation Supervisor for Spokane Parks and Recreation.

Summer camp organizers expect big turnout
Return of summer camps across the Heartland By Brooke Buckner | March 31, 2021 at 6:28 PM CDT - Updated April 1 at 2:50 AM
CAPE GIRARDEAU CO., Mo. (KFVS) - Some families in the Heartland plan their summer around kids camps. Most were shut down last year due to COVID-19, and some parents and camp organizers in the Heartland are ready to get back.
Cape Girardeau’s Recreation Supervisor, Chris Eastridge, said they still had summer camps in 2020, but enforced safety guidelines.
“They weren’t necessarily full because we kind of minimized our numbers with COVID and everything, but they all had between 10 and 20 kids in them,” Eastridge said.
