Moore County has opened a temporary cooling station at the Moore County Sports Complex, located at 155 Hillcrest Park Lane in Carthage, to offer an air-conditioned escape from the dangerous afternoon heat. The station is open daily from 1:00PM-6:00PM starting Thursday, July 2nd-Monday, July 6th. This facility is strictly for temporary daytime relief, so overnight stays and food services are not available, and pets are prohibited inside unless they are service animals. Families can also enjoy the complex’s outdoor splash pad, which remains open daily from 10:00AM-6:00PM.
