Summer Fun at Gene Coulon Park

by Lynn Glessner

Gene Coulon Park was rated one of the top five family parks by the Seattle Times. And with good reason. There is a massive play area for children, waterfront beach, and a couple of little eateries.

They are now opening up the swimming area for the summer. The Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park and Kennydale Beach park will be open noon to 8PM, with lifeguards June 23rd through Labor Day.

Also at Gene Coulon Park will be free family concerts every Wednesday at 7PM. The Family Concert Series starts June 27th and goes through August 15th.
