The splash park outside the Jake Epp Library in Steinbach opened for the season Wednesday morning.

Russ Dyck with Parks and Recreation says the opening is right on par with other years when they try to have it up and running right after Victoria Day.

"If the temperatures cooperate I'm sure there will be some kids out there later today," says Dyck.

Meanwhile, the outdoor pool and splash park at the Steinbach Aquatic Centre will open on weekends beginning June 10th and then open on weekdays starting July 1st.

Some other splash parks in the area are getting close to opening. We have been told the one in Blumenort will open this week, while the one in Ste.Anne will open in June.
