Tumwater
A Place to Live, Work, and Play
Everyone looks forward to the arrival of summer, warmer weather and a chance to get
outside and enjoy the great community that we live in. Summer is traditionally a time for
family vacations and reunions, barbecues, playing outside and working in the yard. It’s a
busy couple of months that we look forward to all year long.
Summer is a busy time at Tumwater Parks and Recreation as well. City parks are full of
activity with sports and games, children at playgrounds, shelter rentals, trail users and
people enjoying access to the Deschutes River. Your City also offers many recreation
programs over summer, including day camps for youth and teens, classes, lessons, senior
activities and much more.
The City opened its newest neighborhood park, Deschutes Valley Park, in May. Located
at 600 T Street SE, this new park was a joint project between the City and the LOTT Clean
Water Alliance. The new facility
has playgrounds, a restroom, grass
area and a fantastic view over the
Tumwater Valley Golf Course.
The park is also the site of a new
one million gallon reclaimed
water storage tank, which is built
into the hillside and provides a
great viewing platform for park
visitors. The reclaimed water is
now being used to irrigate the
City’s golf course and the turf
at the new park. Working with
LOTT, the City has created a
unique and beautiful new park at
the end of T Street.
Be sure to enjoy all that Tumwater has to offer this summer and don’t forget – Tumwater
hosts the biggest and best 4th of July celebration in the South Sound! For more information,
contact Tumwater Parks and Recreation or visit the City’s website at www.ci.tumwater.
wa.us. The 21 and over crowd is invited to celebrate Tumwater’s brewing history with us at
the 4th Annual Tumwater Artesian Brewfest held on Saturday, August 20 at the Tumwater
Valley Golf Course. See more details on page 15 of this brochure.

new instructors with innovative new program ideas.

invite you to teach for us. Call today and let us know
how we can help you share your talents.
Share your ideas! Maybe you don’t have a talent
you want to share with us, but perhaps you have a
great idea of what you would like to see us offer. Let us
know!
Helping Hands! We are always looking for volun-
