Splashpads

You wanted it, you got it! Splash Pad Central!

Firstly, all of these Splash Pads (also known as spray pads, splash parks, I could go on..) are Public Parks. There are a few that people might mention that are private-i.e. HOA owned and only for the residents there. Please make sure that you are either a guest of a resident before you frequent those.

Westgate, Tempe Marketplace, Desert Ridge, Scottsdale Quarter-On most of the year, shut off for cleaning and maintenance.

Surprise Splashpads- Turn on April 1, Off November 1.

Peoria, Goodyear- Turn on Third Monday in April, Off Third Monday in October

Avondale-On 2nd weekend of April (weekends only), Daily at end of School

Phoenix-Turn on End of School

Tempe- Turn on End of School, Some Sundays are not on.

 

 

I also suggest a few things when you go to the splash pads-Water shoes. There are a lot of splash pads that have concrete floors (UGH!) and can become slippery when wet (It’s not an Aerosmith Album, as I have been reminded ! It is a Bon Jovi Album! Not even close to the music heard at the Splash Pads!). Lather up with Sunscreen, even bring your own chair. Kids love having buckets and watering cans too.
