Summer is here and the splash pad is busy!  Timing could not have been better to have our new splash pad up and operational for all of the neighbourhood children to cool down and have fun.  The splash pad will close briefly on Thursday, July 14 for installation of a trellis.  The contractors know our kids will miss that cool water, so they plan to do the work as quickly as possible.  Here is a link to information about other splash pads in the city: Splash Pads
