The new Great Outdoors Waterpark, a voter-approved transformation and expansion of the LaMont Does Outdoor Pool, features an exposed timber-frame architectural style and brings a mountain resort feel to Lafayette. The most notable and visible amenity is the 21 foot high, double-trouble flagship slide! These two colorful slide tubes weave together to take aquatic explorers on a high-speed, exhilarating trip into splashy run outs.
