Need a little help covering the cost? Financial assistance is available through the City of Kennewick, but pre-approval is required.

Families are encouraged to apply early to make sure everything is processed in time.

Applications can be downloaded from the city’s website and dropped off at the Numerica Pavilion or the Keewaydin Community Center.

Processing can take up to 10 days, and staff at both locations are available to help with the paperwork if needed.

Take it from me, some of the best memories I have of my dad is our fishing trips as a kid. The good news, financial help is available, and so no one gets left out.
