Dear Cathedral City Community,

We're excited to share some wonderful news with you! Thanks to the passage of Measure W, Cathedral City has entered into a new partnership agreement with the Desert Recreation District (DRD) as of July 1st, and we couldn't be more thrilled about the enhanced recreational opportunities this brings to our community.

To celebrate this exciting partnership, we invite you and your family to join us for the SPLASH BASH this Friday, July 18th from 5:00-10:00 PM at Dennis Keat Soccer Park. This FREE community event is a perfect example of how our collaboration with DRD will bring even more amazing programs and activities directly to Cathedral City residents.
The evening promises to be filled with fun, refreshment, and connection. We'll have a water play zone running from 5:00-8:00 PM where kids and families can cool off and splash around. As the sun sets, we'll transition to our movie under the stars featuring Disney's Moana 2, beginning at dusk.

Throughout the evening, you'll find carnival games, family activities, live music, and concession snacks to keep everyone entertained and energized. We're excited to announce that Mas Tacos will be on-site offering delicious food for purchase, and kids won't want to miss meeting Lenny the Landshark!

This partnership represents the community's investment in providing world-class recreational experiences right here in Cathedral City. Thanks to your support of Measure W, we're bringing you more events, programs, and opportunities to stay active, connected, and engaged in our community. To learn more about all the recreational opportunities now available to Cathedral City residents, visit www.myrecreationdistrict.com/communities.

We look forward to seeing you at Dennis Keat Soccer Park (69400 30th Ave) this Friday evening. Come ready to splash, laugh, and celebrate this exciting new chapter for Cathedral City!
