Splash Pads LACountyP... - 132 views - 5 months ago
Splashpads are unique interactive water play areas that spray water from structures or ground sprayers; the water is then immediately drained away, making it safe for all ages to enjoy. The splash pads are one of the best ways to get cooled off and wet, without the concern of water depth.

Call your local County of Los Angeles Park or visit http://parks.lacounty.gov to find the Splash Pad nearest you.
