Seattle’s warm spring weather is a great reminder that we need to keep our bodies hydrated, and the timing could not be more perfect as the U.S. celebrates Drinking Water Week from May 3 to 9.
To commemorate Drinking Water Week, Seattle Public Utilities has unveiled seven new drinking water bottle refill stations in downtown Seattle so the public can enjoy some of the best-quality drinking water in the U.S.
Seattle residents, workers, and visitors – including World Cup soccer fans – can now quench their thirst as they move through the streets of downtown Seattle by easily filling up their reusable water bottles with Seattle Water – Pure from the start!
The new refill stations provide day-to-day and emergency access to clean and safe drinking water and feature colorful illustrations from local artist Stevie Shao. The art celebrates Seattle’s mountain-sourced and watershed-protected drinking water.
As Seattle approaches the hot summer weather and welcomes visitors from around the world for the World Cup, the refill stations encourage residents and tourists to stay hydrated while giving them a taste of why Seattle Water is Better than Bottled.
So, the next time you are visiting downtown Seattle, bring your reusable water bottle and stop by one of these downtown drinking water refill locations for a cool and refreshing drink – and make sure to tell your family and friends.
Happy Drinking Water Week, Seattle!
