Rounding out the centers, the Clearwater Community Volunteers Center provided a space for families to cool down in.

"We've been attending your Block Party every year," said one father from Pennsylvania. "We plan out summer vacation to attend your event as I have never seen anything like it anywhere. We can just come here and you don't have to worry about anything, the whole family can just enjoy themselves."
