CORPUS CHRISTI, TX – Through its “Beat the Heat” Program, Reliant Energy will help residents get through the summer by providing a fun at-home family kit for activities using their games packet, cooling devices and cool snacks. Residents can pick-up the kit curbside at designated centers to help them keep cool in their homes, while they Play It Safe by wearing masks and continue to practice social distancing. Arctic Air Coolers will be available for individuals who qualify.

This year everyone is invited to participate in virtual activities for play and fitness to be offered on the Parks & Recreation Facebook page.

The curbside distribution schedule will be offered on Saturdays from July 11–August 29, 2020, from 11am to 12pm at the designated locations while supplies last. Limit of one kit per person and must be present to receive items.
