Need to cool off? Find a splash pad near you
As temperatures continue to rise in the Las Vegas Valley, the need for a place to cool down quickly is almost a necessity.
The high on Thursday this week is forecast to hit 106, about 11 degrees above normal.
Residents can cool down at more than 60 parks in Southern Nevada that include splash pads.
Splash pads maintained by the city of Las Vegas are open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., with the exception of parks located near a school. Those parks are open 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Splash pads in Henderson are available from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Heritage Park also features Bark Park — a splash pad specifically for dogs — open 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.
People at all parks should use social distancing measures.
Here is a list of parks that include splash pads throughout Southern Nevada:
