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.

Non-Resident Fees

Participants who live outside of Prosser’s city limits can expect to pay a little more than residents for park reservations, rentals, recreation programs, events and pool fees. The non-resident rate ensures that families living outside the city limits are paying an equitable rate as those that live within the city limits.

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.

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)
