funds for a Spray Pad at the Sandra Schmirler Leisure Center on Prince of
Wales and Woodhams, is now a reality.
The project has been broken down into two phases. Phase I is for a fully functioning spray pad. This was made possible by funding of $235,000 from AECA
and our donors. The spray pad was dug, plumbed and concrete poured last fall.
This spring the contractor, Acupulco Pool Ltd. will return to complete the water
hookup and landscaping. The Phase I water features are functional but pretty
basic. With the help of the East Zone Board we received funding to add three
Phase II fixtures ahead of time so that they will be installed for use this summer.
Phase II of the project involves adding more spray components to the pad. The
options available include a misting entry sign, castle slide, pine tree with tumbling buckets, barrel pool and falls, spinning toadstool, serpent cannon, treasure chest, and city wall cannon. These fixtures are interactive and will greatly
