Refund Policy Sometimes things don’t go as planned. We reserve the right to cancel, reschedule or combine any activity or program as needed. If an activity or program is cancelled by the Prosser Parks and Recreation Department, the patron will receive a full refund within three weeks of the activity or program being cancelled. Request For Refunds By Patrons: 1. Refunds will be automatically granted if requested five (5) business days in advance of the activity or program (less a $10.00 processing fee per transaction). 2. Refunds may be considered if request is received less than (5) business days prior to the service (if any service has been received, no refunds will be granted) 3. Refunds will not be granted for any event or program cancelled due to inclement weather or circumstances beyond the City’s control. For information on any activity or program cancellation or to see if the Aquatic Center is open, please check our Facebook page or call us at 509-786-2332.

FREE Sensory & Senior Swim For many children and adults with special needs, autism or otherwise, swimming c an be a very therapeutic pastime. For autistic individuals water can be calming on sensory overloads, provide a weightless environment, and it’s often very freeing. The commotion and bustle of open swim can be overwhelming or intimidating. The City of Prosser has set aside some hours for Sensory Swim, a time when children and their families can come and enjoy a sensory sensitive environment.
