The City and Borough of Juneau Parks & Recreation Department is accepting 1-year commercial use permit applications for the 2025 season from now through Sunday, March 31.

Commercial use permits authorize commercial activity on CBJ parklands. There is a non-refundable $250 application fee for the first location and a $100 application fee for every additional location from the same vendor. Learn more about commercial use permits on the Parks & Recreation Commercial Use webpage.

Parks & Recreation will also accept late applications from April 1 through June 30, which will have an associated late fee of $250, totaling $500 for the first application. Additional applications will still cost $100.

All applications will be processed through an online form. Vendors applying for more than one location will be able to fill out a shorter version of the form when they apply for the second location onward. For those additional applications, be sure to select “No” for the second question on the landing page.

Augustus G. Brown Swimming Pool is rolling out a new aquatic fitness class! Starting March 4, stop by the pool on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 5:30 – 6:30 p.m. for an all-ages class designed to provide a gentle yet-effective workout for those seeking to improve strength and joint care.

Through low-impact exercises in the water, participants will engage in movements that strengthen muscles, enhance flexibility, and reduce joint stress. The buoyancy of the water provides a safe and supportive environment, making it ideal for individuals with arthritis or those looking to prevent bone density loss. The class emphasizes posture, coordination, and overall mobility to help boost confidence and prevent falls.

No registration is required—just show up with your swimsuit, towel, and water shoes (optional but recommended!).

Regular pool admission applies, and pool passes are accepted.
