Splash Pad
Laurel Clark Fountain (Splashpad)
The fountain, also fondly called the “Splash Pad”, is an interactive water feature that allows guests to cool off during hot summer months without fully immersing in a body of water. It is perfect for every member of your family. It is located at the bottom of Sam Johnson Parkway, close proximity to many amenities and local attractions. It is typically open the first Saturday in May, and remains open through the last weekend of September. Water is tested daily, and if not within requirements, it may be required to be shut off until water is back within required levels.
