As rising temperatures continue, Cedar Falls Public Safety and Animal Control demonstrate how fast a vehicle can heat up and the dangers of leaving pets and children unattended. 

Summer may look a little different this year but there is still plenty of great opportunities to enjoy Cedar Falls!

Hear from Kim Manning, Cedar Falls Tourism and Cultural Manager,  for a rundown of fun events and activities taking place this summer including updates from the Hearst Center for the Arts, Live to 9, Movies Under the Moon, Passport to the Arts, Cedar Valley Trails, ARTapalooza, farmers markets, UNI Football, and Hartman Reserve Nature Center!

Helping our community is what we do!

When two of seasonal Cedar Falls Parks employees, Rachel Pugh and Laura Carpenter, were driving past the Women’s Club by City Hall one afternoon they noticed a sound of distress. Pulling over their vehicle, they saw that a women had fallen on the sidewalk, scratching her skin in the process. Both Rachel and Laura attended to her and offered to contact medical help if needed. The woman assured them that was not necessary but she did require assistance getting home which they were more than happy to help with.

By taking the time to investigate and remain with this individual, both employees made a big difference in her safety and peace of mind.

Thank you these amazing team members for stepping up to lend a helping hand when someone needed it most!
