The Cool Zone program helps seniors and people with disabilities stay cool during hot summer days. 

Having air-conditioned settings where seniors and others can beat the heat not only reduces their individual energy costs, but can protect their health.  And Cool Zones are great places to meet people.  The County's Aging & Independent Services, in partnership with SDG&E, will operate the Cool Zone program June 24 through October 31.
