(KNZA)--July 1st will be a free swim day at the Hiawatha Aquatic Park.
The Hiawatha City Commission gave their approval Monday evening on the recommendation of Parks and Recreation Director Stacy Jasper.
The event will kick-off the month of July, which is National Parks and Recreation Month.
Interim City Administrator Brad Scott said Jasper is planning more events next month to celebrate National Parks and Recreation month.
On the recommendation of City Clerk Dawn Boyles, the Commission approved amendments to the city hall front office job descriptions and pay scale.
