Splash Pad Project

Splash Pad Project

Learn More About The Project!

For many years our community has talked about the need for more recreational activities.  The planned park will be placed near Lakeshore Drive at the southeast corner of McKinley Ave. and L St.  The new park is planned to include:

  • Splash Pad
  • Playground
  • Shaded Picnic Area
  • Restrooms

The park's location on the Lake Eufaula cove is perfect to tie in with the nearby pavilion, sand volleyball court, 18-hole disc golf course, lakeside walking trail, and so much more!

The total project cost is estimated to be $562,000.  Because the project will be bid out, the final cost may come in higher or lower than the estimate.  If there are additional funds available, we will make additional improvements such as more splash pad toys.
