Read more about this location
Elks Pool and Spray Park combines two different summer visit styles in one Grand Forks Park District location: a free public spray park and a paid outdoor pool with a water slide. Families can use the splash area for a no-cost, low-commitment stop or upgrade to a fuller pool outing with concessions, changing support, showers, and lessons. Because it sits in Elks Park, the site also benefits from green space and a playground nearby.
