Bend Local Frequency: Water Conservation, Spring Break Fun, and Community Connection

Description
Good morning, this is your Bend Local Frequency for Monday, March 16.

As we kick off the week, Bend is shaking off winters lingering chill with a major warming trend underway, highs climbing into the comfortable zone after that classic Central Oregon tease of melt, refreeze, and surprise sun. Perfect timing as the City of Bend launches Fix a Leak Week today through March 22, urging everyone to hunt down those sneaky drips in faucets, seals, and irrigation lines. With our low snowpack stressing rivers and groundwater for summer, fixing leaks could save your household up to 10,000 gallons a year, slash bills, and keep our water flowing strong, enter their challenges for prizes and check city resources to get started, it adds up to real impact for our dry season ahead.

Planning your week? Tomorrow, March 17, marks the start of summer 2026 registration openings at 6am for Bend Park and Rec, first up summer camps, then programs, swim lessons, and sports leagues on the 18th, snag those spots early before they fill. That same day at noon, head to Larkspur Community Center for the free Lunch and Learn on Maintaining Muscle Mass with Natural Grocers coach Allen Lalumia, pack your brown bag for science-backed tips on foods and supplements to stay strong post-30, coffee and dessert on the house in honor of National Nutrition Month.

Spring breaks rolling in with fun for all ages from March 22 at The Pavilion and Juniper Swim and Fitness Center, $8 ice skating sessions, rec swims at seven bucks per adult with kid, leading to epic End of Season DJ Skate Parties March 27 and 28 with DJ Teafly and DJ Briantology grooving till 8pm. Teens 12 to 17, volunteer for Camp Fire Central Oregons free youth ice skating bash at The Pavilion to celebrate Absolutely Incredible Kid Day. Looking further, catch the Mountain View XC Meet Fundraiser today at Big Sky Park, No Kings Rally March 28 in Drake Park, and Frybread Tacos with Page for Progress March 29 at Alpenglow.

Whether conserving water, building muscle, or hitting the ice, these spots connect us to healthier days and community vibes that make Bend thrive.
