Lions Park Spray Park reopening for the summer

The Lions Park Spray Park is reopening for the rest of the summer, while construction continues in the area.

The spray park will reopen on Wednesday, following the closure earlier this month for the construction of the Jumpstart Inclusive Playground and was scheduled to be closed throughout the rest of the summer. When construction started, officials were able to reevaluate the safety parameters and adjust fencing, allowing the spray park to safely reopen. 

All pathways in Lions Park remain closed during construction, and access to the spray park is only available through a small area of green space. 

Anyone who visits the spray park is reminded that the area is still an active construction zone. For safety, it is important to stay out of fenced areas, respect the crews on site and be extra cautious when going to the park with kids. 

With the construction still active, there is the possibility that the spray park could be temporarily closed. The city is advising the community service updates will be provided as needed.
