OFOPREN DAILY 2 THE 201 SUMMER ON! SEAS Last year, more than 38,000 people made use of the water park and Temple Parks and Leisure Services officials are expecting this year to be even more popular. “This is the Lions Junction’s fourth season and every year the community becomes more aware that we have such a wonderful water park so close to home and our attendance grows every year. We are excited that more people are taking advantage of what Temple has to offer,” said Chuck Ramm, Temple Parks and Leisure Services Recreation Superintendent. Lions Junction is located at 5000 South 5th Street in Temple and features two water slides, a lazy river, a beach entry pool, and a splash playground. “Lions Junction is a great place for all ages, from the water slides to the lazy river and the splash pad there is something for everyone to enjoy,” said Aquatics Coordinator Keith Dawson. “Best of all it is right here in Temple!” “Visitors can purchase a day pass or a season membership which can really save money if you plan on visiting the park several times over the summer,” said Dawson. In addition to day passes and season memberships, interested individuals and groups can rent either the park’s large pavilion during normal park hours or rent the entire park from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. on Thursdays and 7:00 to 10:00 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. “Renting the water park has become very popular for parties, group get-togethers, and corporate events,” continued Dawson. “We have limited rental opportunities and the spaces fill up fast, so those wishing to rent should contact 254-298-5690 to reserve their space as soon as possible.” For more information about Lions Junction Family Water Park, including how to rent the facility, please call Temple Parks and Leisure Services Department at 254-298-5690 or visit www.LionsJunction.com.

The Temple Historic Preservation Committee will hold a Marker Presentation honoring Clarence Martin Gym as the latest recipient of a Temple Historic Marker. The reception will be held Wednesday August 8th at 3:30, at Clarence Martin Gym located at 102 West Elm Avenue Temple TX. Clarence Martin Gym was built in the 1930’s and originally used as the gym for Temple High School. In 1965 Temple High School was torn down but the gym remained and was quickly acquired by Temple’s Park and Leisure Services. Since then the facility has been used by various city programs, local organizations and athletic events. The City of Temple has maintained the building over the years due to its importance within the community. The latest renovation was completed May 2012 with the gym receiving new flooring. For more information about the gym’s activities and rental information please contact Tracey Klusacek at 298-5582. The Historic Marker Program was designed to recognize historically significant structures within the city, while encouraging preservation and restoration. In order for a property to be considered for a Temple Historic Marker, the property owner must fill out an application and submit it with supporting documentation to the Historic Preservation Committee. There is a small application fee, which is currently half off for the summer months. After an application is submitted the committee will review the pending application and make a decision. Anyone interested in learning more about the Historic Marker Program or to RSVP for the presentation please call 298-5900.
