HELLO FROM THE MAYOR
Summer is upon us and I invite you to explore the incredible recreation opportunities here in Renton! Our city has much to offer, from expansive parks and trails to vibrant community events and celebrations.
Mark your calendars for July 26-28, when we celebrate our 39th annual Renton River Days Festival. This year's theme is "Where Community Grows," a testament to the lively spirit that defines our city.
Stop into the Tuesday Farmers Market to pick up fresh produce and flowers, enjoy a tee time at Maplewood Golf Course, or discover exciting programs and activities at our recreation centers.
Opening day at Henry Moses Aquatic Center marks two decades of bringing joy to our community.
In addition, there are no-cost activities we host throughout the summer, like the Summer Concert Series at Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park and Renton Community Celebrations brought to you by the Neighborhood Program. Thank you for choosing Renton as your place to live, work, and play. It's going to be a great summer.
