Temple Splash Pads Open for Summer

May-June 2012

Temperatures are rising and Temple Parks and Leisure Services wants to help you cool off at the Temple Splash Pads! All three splash pad locations will open weekends only starting Saturday, May 5 and daily starting May 31.

Three great splash pads to explore in Temple: • Ferguson Park Splash Pad 1203 E. Adams • Miller Park Splash Pad 1919 N. 1st Street • West Temple Park Splash Pad 121 S. Montpark Road “The splash pads in Temple are very popular. We estimate over 15,000 children will visit the splash pads this summer,” said Parks and Leisure Services Director, Ken Cicora. “The first one we opened was at Ferguson Park and because of that success, in the 2007 Parks Bond election we put the Miller and West Temple Park splash pads on the ballot and they were overwhelmingly approved by the voters. Splash pads offer a free and fun activity for the community and we are happy to offer three unique splash pads across Temple.” The splash pads are operational from 8 a.m. – 8 p.m. throughout the summer. Weather permitting, they will stay open through early fall. For more information on the splash pads, please visit www.TempleParks.com or call 254.298.5690.

Stop in at the Temple Visitor Center for a variety of Temple souvenirs, phonebooks, Temple/Bell County maps, and over 100 brochures from popular Texas travel destinations and attractions! The center is located at 120 W. Central Avenue in Historic Downtown Temple. Operating hours are Monday thru Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Local information is available on the Temple CVB website at www.discovertemple.com or call 254-298-5900. Comments and suggestions are always welcome! Please mail to Temple CVB, 120 W. Central Ave., Temple, TX 76501 or email them to sfarias@templetx.gov
