(Atlantic) The Atlantic Parks and Recreation Board will hold a work session Monday (September 26) to discuss the Splash Pad survey.
The survey, which is still being conducted on the Atlantic Area Chamber of Commerce website and Facebook page, is asking the public which features they would like to see in a Splash Pad. The public is encouraged to attend the work session on Monday. Four companies have already given presentations to the Parks and Recreation Board. Once the list of Splash Pad “wants” is put together, that will be sent to the companies for them to put together a bid.
Park Board Member Jolene Smith said in addition to a Splash Pad at Sunnyside Park, they have a big dream for the area.
Smith said there is room for two sand volleyball courts and two soccer courts as well. She said a lot of that will take years to happen, but they want to get the Splash Pad up and going by next year.
Smith said they are looking at grants to cover the costs of the Splash Pad.
Monday’s Splash Pad Work Session will take place at the Atlantic City Council Chamber at 5:15 p.m.
