Looking for a way to beat the heat this weekend?
If you’re in Kelowna, trek over to one of the city’s three waterparks, which all opened on Saturday.
The city said it was opening its waterparks earlier this year than normal due to unseasonably hot temperatures this weekend. The forecast is calling for sunny skies and temperatures around 30 degrees Celsius for at least the next week.
The waterparks are located at:
- City Park, 1600 Abbott St.
- Ben Lee Park, 900 Houghton Rd.
- Quilchena Park, 347 Quilchena Dr.
