Scottsdale is addressing the intense summer heat by extending the operating hours of its Day Relief Centers. The initiative, a collaboration between Scottsdale's Human Services and Police departments, aims to offer a cool environment for those in need. Visitors can access meals, water, showers, and guidance for additional services.
The extended hours will be effective until the end of September. On Mondays, the South Scottsdale Presbyterian Church at 3421 N. Hayden Road will operate from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Meanwhile, the Vista del Camino Community Center at 7700 E. Roosevelt Dr. will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sundays and from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Tuesday through Friday.
Additionally, hydration stations providing drinking fountains or free bottled water are available at several locations: Granite Reef and Via Linda senior centers, Vista del Camino Community Center, and Paiute Neighborhood Center. Cooling stations offering refuge from the heat are accessible during regular business hours at all four city libraries: Appaloosa, Arabian, Civic Center, and Mustang.
