How do you beat the summer heat? Asked at the Dolores Bengtson Aquatic Center

Wendy Price

Stay in the water, drink a lot of water, and keep up on your salts. Come out of the heat when you’re tired. Go to the beach.

First thing in the morning we open all the windows, and then close up about 9 a.m. We’ll take a bike ride early in the morning, and have a water balloon fight or play in the sprinklers.

John Weiman
Touriga Drive
Take naps all day and get active at night. Use all the luxuries Pleasanton has, like the Aquatic center and the sprinklers at the tennis park.

I like to go boating and wakeboarding at the Delta. It’s cool on the water.

Smilja Vukmanovic

I usually spend more time in the house. I’ve been swimming every day at the pool, then I go shopping because it’s cool there. My family is on vacation, so I haven’t been cooking. It’s a vacation for me too. -Compiled by Sandy Christman
