Sedona AZ (August 10, 2018) – Warm evenings are just one great reason to step outside and enjoy quality events and programs offered by the Sedona Parks and Recreation Department.
The Sedona Community Pool eases into the 2018 fall schedule beginning Aug. 13 and will be available for lap swim, open swim and water aerobics into the middle of November. Heated to a comfortable 83 degrees, the pool offers eight lap lanes, both deep and shallow water for play, a water slide, lounge chairs on deck, and locker room facilities with showers.
Upcoming events
- Family Foot Rodeo on Aug. 17 is a unique event that celebrates the history of Posse Grounds Park with interactive rodeo events like bounce horse barrel racing and dummy calf roping. This year Loop Rawlins from America’s Got Talent will be at the event spinning up two amazing wild west shows. Live music by the Dan and Dave Rice Band and food for sale. Location: lower softball field at Posse Grounds Park.
- Fall Friday Flicks will glow through twilight each Friday in September. Recline on the cool grass of the softball field and enjoy a family friendly movie at dark at Posse Grounds Park.
- Sedona WagFest & Fair on Sept. 29 is the perfect day out for dogs and their owners to learn about canine resources, products and providers. Location: the Pavilion at Posse Grounds Park.
- Red Dirt Concert Series on Friday evenings Oct. 12 and 26 and Nov. 2 and 16. Each evening two musical performances take the stage. Spectators can expect a variety of musical genres, sweet treats for sale and a beautiful view. Location: the Pavilion at Posse Grounds Park.
- Pumpkin Splash on Oct. 20 is hands down the best pumpkin patch in Sedona and the Verde Valley. Pumpkins are picked directly out of the community pool so bring a swim suit and pack a camera for this outstanding event. Games on deck and treats for sale. Tickets for this sell-out event go on sale Oct. 8 at the Parks and Recreation Office located at Posse Grounds Park. Event location: Sedona Community Pool.
