With multiple days of extreme heat anticipated to set new June records across Ontario, the daily operational hours for all Welland Splash Pads will be extended to 8AM – 8PM starting tomorrow, June 10. Timers have already been set to ensure all pads will be operational for the early morning visitors.

All splash pads are activated through push-button feature. Caregivers are reminded to supervise children closely as these water play areas are not supervised by City staff.

Please be mindful of your surrounding while visiting a park, a trail or public square and practice physical distancing. Please ensure keep two metres (six feet) away from people who are not from the same household.

Residents should not use a splash pad if feeling ill. When using a splash pad, residents should practise good hand hygiene and return at another time if the splash pad is crowded.
