We're now making the call to cancel our Lunar Observing event at Constitution Park tonight. All of the forecasts agree that conditions are only getting worse.

This was the last of these Lunar observing events of the year for 2026. Hopefully the weather will cooperate a little more with whatever we plan for 2027!

Well folks, all good things must come to an end! Yesterday marked the end of the 87th season at Constitution Park Pool. The Parks & Rec team sincerely thanks everyone for another great pool season!

A big thank-you to the Inbetween Cafe for serving up all those delicious treats! We appreciate you!

A great big shout-out to our lifeguards this year! We had some returning lifeguards who helped keep the ship steered in the right direction, along with some newcomers who took to the job like they had been doing it all along. You all did an awesome job!

And, way to go, Mason! Mason took over as pool manager this year and did an outstanding job. He had some big shoes to fill, but he stepped up to the challenge and knocked it out of the park!

Lastly, a big thank-you to Public Works! There is so much that goes on behind the scenes to keep the pool running smoothly. Without their hard work and dedication, we wouldn’t have the gem that we have!

Thank you to everyone who helped make Season 87 a great one. We’ll see you all next summer for Year 88! ☀️🏊‍♂️
