Your whole family, including your dog, are invited to join in the fun from noon to 4:00 p.m. at the Simpkins Family Swim Center. Tickets are on sale now and dogs are always free. Parks & Rex POOL PARTY offers a FUNtastic afternoon of food, drink and music while raising money for Santa Cruz County Parks Department recreation programs and Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter animal welfare programs.

The 50-meter pool will host a variety of activities for adults and children, including inner tubes, Wibit (inflatable play apparatus), Walk-on-Water Balls, stand-up paddle boards, water slide, a climbing wall, and of course - swimming! Adults will have a chance to win some great prizes in the amazing raffle, and enjoy a
