The Prosser Little League program includes T-Ball and Mini Ball for ages 4 - 9. The Youth Ball program

Sponsorship Opportunities

Looking for a great way to advertise your business and support your community? Become a Prosser Parks and

Recreation Department sponsor! For more information on sponsorship opportunities, contact Kathya Martinez

at [email protected] or 509-786-8225.

Aquatic Center “FREE Sensory Swim”

For many children and adults with special needs, autism or otherwise, swimming can be a very therapeutic

pastime. For autistic individuals water can be calming on sensory overloads, provide a weightless environment,

and it’s often very freeing. The commotion and bustle of open swim can be overwhelming or intimidating. The

City of Prosser has set aside some hours for Sensory Swim, a time when children and their families can come

and enjoy a sensory sensitive environment. For more information about this program and others, please visit

www.cityofprosser.com/pac.

Non-Resident Fees

Participants who live outside of Prosser’s City limits can expect to pay a little more than residents for park

reservations, rentals, recreation programs and pool fees. The non-resident rate ensures that families living

outside the City limits are paying an equitable rate as those that live within the City limits.
