Work continues on splash pad

PRESCOTT – Work continues on the new splash pad at City Park.

Crews with the City of Prescott were out again Wednesday morning laying more sod around the pad. It was determined a good deal more sod will be required to completely encircle the structure. While people are clamoring for the pad to open, they’ll have to wait until all the work is completed and the system has been tested and approved, as well as making sure someone is properly trained to operate the computer program for the timer.

Once most of the sod had been laid, the crew took a short break to get hydrated.

Regardless of when it opens, it will be a welcome relief from the heat for youngsters of all ages.
