Diamond Jubilee Splash Pad really is a jewel of a park. It’s by far one of the larger and most creative splash pads we’ve encountered to date. There are a variety of unique structures that spray on a cycle. We especially liked the footing – seems to be a softer type of concrete – and the fact that this large splash pad has an area with lower water structures…perfect for hesitant splashers.
PROVENCE PARK Splash Pad
Provence Park Splash Pad is a relatively new splash pad. It has several interesting structures including an unusual yellow doorway arch.
There is a gazebo for shade and a few playstructures and climbing structures in the park.
CHAPEL HILL PARK Splash Pad
Chapel Hill Park is an older splash pad and consists of one simple wood post with two sprays. Nothing impressive but just enough to cool off on a hot day.
There is plenty of shade and a play structure at the park.
DR. JOHN HOPPS PARK Splash Pad
Dr. John Hopps Park has a modern, inviting splash pad with many different devices rotating through a fairly long cycle. At any given time there is water coming out from somewhere and you need to move quickly if you’re trying to avoid getting wet.
The splash pad itself has little shade as the park is fairly new. There is a gazebo nearby and a playstructure at the park.
THORNECLIFFE PARK Splash Pad
The splash pad at Thornecliffe Park is a basic ground jets pad. It has seven jets of different strengths. The timer is short but it’s located on the top of a post of a height easy enough for young children to reach.
There is a gazebo at the park and a playstructure. The slides on the structure are metal so it’s harder to use in the summer sun.
GERALD POULIN PARK Splash Pad
Gerald Poulin has an older splash pad. It consists of one wooden post with medium strength sprays from three of the sides.
The park is a bit unique. There is a paved track that runs around the splash pad that would be nice for young ones learning to ride or blade. There is plenty of shade at the park and several benches and picnic tables. There is a play structure, hill, and field at the park.
