                              with Kim Lyddane
                              The dry, warm days are becoming more frequent which means summer is right around the corner! After a wild
                              year, I know all of us are ready to get outside and have some fun. There are plenty of ways to keep active
                              and busy over the next few months.

                              COOL! Pool opens for the season on June 19. After almost two years without patrons, we are ready to
                              have you play in the water. The Waverly Paddle Boats start up on June 22. This year, folks will be able to
                              paddle Tuesday-Sunday. And always, Albany Community Pool will continue to be open for lap swim, lessons,
                              and other recreation opportunities throughout the summer. Be sure to check the website for details on
                              pre-registration.

                              It wouldnʼt be summer in Albany without River Rhythms, Summer Sounds, and the Northwest Art & Air
                              Festival. They will be back this summer! They will look different, but we canʼt wait to get you all back in the
                              parks listening to live music, eating good food, and having a good time. Details will continue to evolve as we
                              navigate current risk levels but keep your eye on our website and social media for the latest and greatest.

                              As a reminder, Oregon Healthy Authority guidelines will be followed for all of our facilities, events, and
                              programs as safety is our number on priority. As the state continues to reopen, we look forward to bringing
                              even more of your favorite activities and programs back. If you ever have questions about what is open or
                              usable please visit our website at albanyparksandrecreation.org

                              Stay safe and have a good summer!

 Refund Policy: Our mission is to provide quality recreational experiences that are financially sustainable.
 Activities, programs, and classes must meet minimum enrollments in order to be offered. If Parks & Recreation for
 any reason cancels an activity, program, or class a full refund will be issued. If a participant decides to cancel, a
 refund will only be given if another participant is found. If a replacement is found and the participant is entitled to a
 refund, they may choose a credit on their account or a refund in the original payment method. Refunds of less than
 $5 will automatically be issued as credit.

 Pricing: Fees listed on the left reflect a reduced price for in-city Albany residents. Those who live outside the city
 limits pay full tuition. You may purchase an out-of-city user card ($40 individual/$80 family) which allows you to pay
 in-city rates for one year.

 Policies: For all of our policies visit our website at www.albanyparksandrecreation.org or call 541-917-7777.
