Columbia View Park Splash Pad Summer 2025 Opening!
The park and splash pad are anticipated to open for use on Friday, June 13, 2025. Some adjacent lawn areas will remain sectioned off with caution tape after the park is open to allow the newly seeded grass time to establish.
We had great partnerships at our McBride afterschool program today! @SHPD officers came to speak with our youth about bike and crosswalk safety and OSU Extension Office demonstrated how to follow a recipe and make healthy smoothies.
On Thursday, @SHPD officers joined our S.H.A.R.P. program for a visit. We watched videos on pedestrian and bicycle safety and reviewed worksheets on stranger safety. Officers talked about crosswalk safety and showed our youth their amazing gear. Thank you @SHPD
