• A reminder to our boating community: we have changed the hours of the boat launch at Gene
Coulon Memorial Beach Park to align with our posted park hours. As of July 4th, the boat
launch will close at 10pm nightly, a change from our historic 24/7 access. The nightly closure
is intended to improve safety while longer-term security improvements are implemented. Staff
have notified pass holders and recent patrons directly, we've updated our public information,
and we're coordinating with the police department as this change takes effect. For more
information, please visit our website at www.rentonwa.gov.
