The community center, located at 912 E. Main St., is one of several public buildings throughout Clark County operating as a cooling center as Southwest Washington continues to experience unusually hot temperatures. The space will be open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. through Thursday.

Visitors are welcome to bring picnic meals, reading materials, board games and any other activities for children. The place also has Wi-Fi.
