Hopkinsville Parks and Recreation are preparing for an event filled year, including the reopening of the Tie Breaker Family Aquatic Center in the summer.
Superintendent Tab Brockman says they’re glad to have the aquatic center opening back up for family fun on Memorial Day weekend after it was closed for lengthy renovations last summer season. He says the leaks have been fixed, things have been touched up and it’ll be back better than ever.
They’ll start taking party reservations for the season starting March 1.
In a change of pace this year, Parks and Recreation and the WHOP Family of Stations will be putting on the WHOP’er of an Egg Hunt on April 7 in the evening time, instead of the morning—Brockman says be sure to bring your lights to go hunting at Tie Breaker Park.
More information on the times will be released soon, but the usual favorites, including the grand prize of $98.70, will remain up for grabs by attendees.
The potential is there for there to be two headline acts for the 7th annual Summer Salute, but Coordinator Toby Hudson says they’re still in negotiations so nothing is set in stone just yet.
The Hopkinsville International Festival is set to return to the Jennie Stuart Health-Planters Bank Sportsplex starting on March 24, which marks just the start of a jammed packed year for Parks and Recreation.
