Cincinnati’s Summer Splashdown | Cincinnati News

Cincinnati’s summer just got a whole lot cooler — literally. For the first time in years, all 24 recreation commission pools are open, plus nine spray pads perfect for little ones, as the city braces for a prolonged heat wave. Neighborhood pools roll out in the afternoons and stay open into early evening, closing August 8th — except Dunham Otto and Mount Adams, which offer member-only swim times and a shorter season. Spray pads are a hit for parents seeking safe, splashy fun for toddlers. Beyond water, Rec at Night events keep kids active and safe across four locations, while day camps offer sports, arts, and field trips. And if you just need to escape the heat? All recreation centers are free public cooling centers with AC, water, and no membership required. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
