The Town of Harrisburg is excited to have a community Splash Pad located inside Harrisburg Park!
FAQ:
> Will there be staff to monitor participants on the Splash Pad? The Splash Pad is not monitored by Lifeguards or Staff. We ask that parents and guardians supervise their children and their usage of the splash pad in order to look out for the safety of their own child and other children. Parents may need to assist their child on the slide, as we have found this can be a busier feature. Thank you for your help and cooperation!
