Any idea of when we can expect to see a schedule for this summer?!

Would love to know all the locations and operating hours for summer 2019!!

The city of Brandon only budgets for July and August....it’s so lovely that we get to use these fun activities for just 2 months!! (Yes, the sarcasm font is on)

I'm with you on that, although in the city's defense they did open select ones on a limited basis on weekends last year in May (I think?) and June during a heat wave. They had also extended the hours initially, but then cut them back after awhile, maybe due to lack of use? Or maybe that's where the money for the early openings came from.

Shilo one is open now as well.

i agree its strange the city website hasn't been updated and doesnt i:nclude the locations! Ive been checking as the outdoor pools have been open evenings and weekends mid june in the past.

the schedule is old but the locations of the spray parks are available on the bdmb website
