About the Venue

Bucky Boyle Park Spray Park is one of Allentown's city-operated spray parks and sits within a larger multi-use park. Official city listings note nearby amenities including a playground, pavilion, sports fields, walking trails, restrooms, and fishing, making it a better full-outing option than a stand-alone splash spot. The city previously published expanded seasonal spray-park hours of 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., though families should still expect weather or maintenance variability.
