Stay Cool This Summer With these Community Cooling Centers Around Augusta

Author Darasha

The weather is certainly solidifying that it is summertime! As temperatures continue to rise the City of Augusta has found a way for everyone to beat the heat. They now have several Community Cooling Centers for everyone to use.

A cooling center is a place where you, your family, or whomever, can go to cool down during the hot weather. Cooling centers are air conditioned facilities such as libraries, community and senior centers, schools, and malls.

Augusta has allocated a number of Community centers as cooling centers.

For assistance and referrals to cooling centers, contact local 2-1-1.

Here is a map of cooling centers around the area.

Enjoy the summer, but remember to stay cool!
