Water spouts out of a simulated palm tree that is part of the landscape at the new splash pad in Huntsville.
Architecture of the future. Huntsville’s newest amenity, the splash pad at the College Street Park, opened to the public on Friday and drew rave reviews from youth and their chaperones dancing in the water.
Huntsville Police officers engaged in goodwill and community relations during the grand opening.
Sharina Watkins and her 9-year-old daughter, Emily, enjoyed the inflatable water slide.
Disc-jockey Clint Holloway entertained the crowd by spinning lively dance tunes including “YMCA.”
The center piece of Huntsville’s splash pad is an arch that douses anyone who stands under it and there are plenty of other features where kids discovered they could access water and cool off from the summer heat.
