About the Venue

Elks Aquatic Center combines a splash pad with a traditional outdoor pool setup, making it a stronger fit for families who want both spray play and swim time in one stop. The facility includes two small slides, a large patio with umbrellas, concessions, changing rooms, and a playground nearby. Because the splash pad is part of the paid aquatic center rather than a stand-alone free pad, it works best for families planning a longer, more structured outing.
