1. Summer spray
There’s nothing quite like cooling off on a hot day with 55 gallons of water from a splash bucket.
The Hazel Miller Spray Park in Edmonds City Park is finally open for the summer from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily. Push one of two activator buttons to start the water flow. Spraying begins about three minutes later.
In addition to that splash bucket, the park, at 600 Third Ave. S., Edmonds, has arched sprinklers and ground-spray fixtures.
