About the Venue

Lou Dennis Community Park Splash Pad is part of a major park redevelopment in Newburgh and opened as part of Phase I in 2021. The town’s official park page describes a splash pad paired with a new playground, three large shade structures, added seating, public restrooms, picnic shelters, and a rentable indoor event room overlooking the splash area. This setup makes it one of the region’s better choices for families who want water play plus strong parent comfort and birthday-meetup potential. It works especially well for mixed-age groups because the splash zone is anchored inside a larger park with multiple amenities.
