The splash park near the library opened for the season Friday May 20.

Head of Steinbach Parks and Recreation Russ Dyck says the hours that the park is open will be the same as last year.

“It is from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. in terms of availability of the park on a daily basis throughout the summer. Typically we keep it open into mid September or so. We kind of play it a little bit on what the weather is at that time of year, but usually we try and keep it open until mid September.”

Dyck says with warm weather forecasts it seems May long weekend was a good weekend to open the park. He notes the splash park gets well used all summer long.

“We usually see a lot of people there during the day on nice sunny days so it is great to see the kids enjoying that.”

Jane Hansen is the manager of the Steinbach Aquatic Centre. She says the outdoor pool and splash park at the aquatic centre are set to open on June 25th.
