Picnic Season At Cascade Parks Ends In Part
Cascade Park records a waning but steady September picnic season with five grounds and seven ovens in heavy use. Road washouts near Elyford cripple access, delaying spring openings and prompting park crews to replenish wood stock as visitors still fill the grounds and tents courts. Desert playgrounds grow quiet as schooldays resume though pools close a strong nine-year run with no life losses amid safety praise.

Park commissioners credit strict lifeguard discipline and trained guards for a pool record with no lives lost. Despite no summer classes, many youths learned to swim as guards taught between supervising tasks. Night swimming poses visibility challenges, so daylight swimming is urged for children while adults use evening hours. Park stays open until leaves fall, weather permitting, with ford crossings closed if water rises.
