The Cultural Arts Foundation (CAF) is spearheading a new splash park that will be the first in town and open to all. The splash park will be constructed and expected to be ready for use in 2017. The purpose of the splash park is to provide a place for children of all ages and abilities to experience the outdoors in different ways including structured play, natural play and water play. The splash park is an inclusive place where children play alongside family members, regardless of their abilities or backgrounds and also provide a family friendly activity for local and underserved children. One mom commented: “To most, a splash park is an outdoor alternative to community pools. To my family, it is so much more. My 5-year-old daughter, Abigail, has Raynaud’s Disease. This disease substantially limits her ability to go swimming as her medical condition manifests itself when she is in even mildly cold temperatures. A splash park allows her to wear layers of clothing and stay warm enough for her disease not to manifest itself. I want her to have the same experiences as every other child in our community." Misty, Abigail’s Mom The location of the splash park is at the corner of Lafayette and Dunklin in the Community Park behind the Eastside Community Activity Center (ECAC). The ECAC will be offering the land for the splash park and JC Parks and Recreation will be generously providing ongoing maintenance for the splash park. A recently awarded Dept. of Natural Resources grant to The JC Parks and Rec. Dept. will assist Parks and Rec.to add enhancements to the Community Park such as a new pavilion, misters on the greenway near the park, new playground equipment, increased parking and a new restroom. CAF has held two, large fundraising events, solicited private and public donations and will continue to offer tribute bricks for installation around the splash area in order to raise funds for the splash area. The foundation is close to hitting its first goal of $50,000 which will allow construction to begin. We will continue to seek funds for splash park add-ons such as fun water spray nozzles and other water play elements. The CAF would like to request the remaining unspent funds from The Cultural Arts Commission budget that will not be expended by the end of October. The partnership between The Cultural Arts Commission and Foundation and Parks and Recreation could result in a positive outcome for each organization. The funds could easily be expended on an artistic enhancement that would not happen otherwise. Specialty art tiles, family oriented sculpture, creative lighting for public safety or sound system wiring near an outdoor seating area could be sponsored by the Commission. If the Commission finds this idea worth exploring and an exact amount of funding is decided upon, the Commission and Foundation and Parks can work together to identify the best project to pursue. Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to the Commission’s response.
