There is one faction of the local populace that isn’t bemoaning triple-digit temperatures this month. In fact, the children frequenting Arlington’s four Splash Pads are basically challenging the sun to “bring it” this summer.

  Arlington Parks & Recreation Department splash pads are open 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily through Labor Day. After Labor Day, they will be open weekends only, through the end of September.
