A New Way to Cool Off in Lee’s Summit, MO
Lee’s Summit, MO, a suburb of the Kansas City area, opened their first Splashpad in the Summer of 2015. The giant Super Splash is at the center of the Splashpad and creates lots of excitement and anticipation as kids wait for the giant bucket to fill the tipping point and splashes everyone waiting below. Other features include a refreshing rainbow, popular Aqua Dome with laminar water effect, Tube Cannons, Bucket Trio, dumping Flower, Ombrellos, Sunspray and many ground sprays. The City of Lee’s Summit will be opening their second Splashpad featuring a giant Scorpion in the Summer of 2018.
“Our community of Lee’s Summit, MO (pop. 92,000) was very enthusiastic about our first Splashpad that was installed in Miller J Fields Park the summer of 2015 as part of an $850,000 park renovation. Vortex and Power Play were very helpful and responsive through the entire process including helping my planning and design staff better understand how Splashpad systems work, understanding the types of operating systems, and selecting equipment that meets our site conditions, specifications, and budget parameters. Our park patrons are very pleased with the final product and we hope to be doing other Splashpads in the near future to complement our park system.”
