The Splash Pad at the City Park is OPEN.

Hours will be 9AM- 8PM Tuesdays -Sunday, closed on Mondays for cleaning and maintenance.

It WILL be operating this coming Monday, May 25 for the Memorial Day holiday.

A big thank you to the Parks Dept crew and the rest of the Public Works staff that worked to get it open a little early this year so the younger VISD students could enjoy a field trip.
