Splashdown

LEAMINGTON — With the news last week that splashpads were allowed to open up, local youngsters waited anxiously for their first visit of the year to Seacliff Park’s splashpad.

These young water enthusiasts also waited patiently for the big tomato to fill up and topple over, spilling hundreds of gallons of water on them. L

eamington’s splashpad did not open at all last summer, due to COVID restrictions, while Cottam’s Ridgeview Park splashpad and Wheatley’s Arena splashpad both saw delayed openings.

All three splashpads are now open and ready to entertain the kids on a daily basis.
