Baylor Park Splash Pad to Stay Open to October
Posted Monday, August 23, 2010
Austin Parks and Recreation Department has agreed on a one-time only basis to allow the splash pad in Mary Baylor Park to continue operating until the middle of October, weather permitting. The extended schedule is due to the facility not opening until July. Next year, the splash pad will be open according to the normal schedule of May through September.
A big thanks to Laura Pocaro with OWANA for making inquiry to PARD about an extended schedule and to PARD for agreeing to it.

Clarksville Splash Pad Now Open
Posted Thursday, July 15, 2010
The new water feature in the neighborhood at Mary Baylor Park (between W. 10th and W. 11th) and is now open for your use.
The splash pad does not require a lifeguard and therefore will be open 7 days a week from 9am - 8pm during the season. Just press the big, blue button on the blue arch to activate the pad and the water will splash for fifteen minutes at a time.
Seating and shade are on the way to complete the project, so more work will continue at the park these coming months.
Thank you to everyone involved in getting the splash pad approved and opened!
OWANA thanks all its business members for their continued support.
