St. John's Episcopal Church in Marysville opened today as a cooling center for people who may be unsheltered or living in homes that lack air conditioning.
Knowing extreme heat can be life-threatening, the church reached out to the Red Cross and to Marysville Mayor Ricky Samayoa to offer its air-conditioned Great Hall during this week's heat wave to accommodate residents and their pets during the day's peak heat hours.
St. John's is at 800 D St. on the northwest corner of Eighth Street in Marysville.
The center, which opened at 2 p.m., will be staffed by the Red Cross, which also will be providing bottled water. St. John's will provide bowls and water for pets.
The hall will close at 8 p.m. and be open again from 2 p.m.-8 p.m. Monday and any day this week when temperatures are predicted to hit 104 degrees, which is the Red Cross guideline.
