☀️ Welcome to Locals Season.

The crowds thin out. The parking gets easier. The sunsets get even better.

From refreshing dips at the Swim Center to peaceful mornings in our parks, summer is a great time to rediscover all the things that make Palm Springs feel like home.

Here’s to sunrise walks, shady parks, shorter lines, and making the most of summer in Palm Springs. 🌴😎

What are you most looking forward to this season?

Whether you’re taking Dad for a morning walk, enjoying a swim at the Palm Springs Swim Center, exploring one of our parks, visiting an indoor recreation facility, or simply spending quality time together, we hope today is filled with fun, laughter, and great memories.

As temperatures rise, remember to stay hydrated, wear sunscreen, and plan outdoor activities for the cooler morning or evening hours whenever possible.

Here’s to all the dads, grandfathers, stepdads, father figures, and mentors who make our community stronger every day. We appreciate you!

Happy Father’s Day! ☀️🌴💙

☀️🌡️ When temperatures climb into the triple digits, finding a cool place to rest isn’t just about comfort—it’s about safety.

If you or someone you know needs relief from the desert heat, we’re here to help.

🧢 Limit outdoor activity during peak heat
❄️ Take advantage of local cooling centers when temperatures become extreme
