About the Venue

Park Forest Community Pool is the second Centre Region Parks & Recreation outdoor pool and includes an official spray feature within the larger aquatic complex. Families who want gentle splash play, shallow water options, and a neighborhood pool setting will likely find it easier to navigate than a larger destination waterpark. During Toddler Time, the sprayground, tot pool, and shallow lap-pool area are specifically designated for younger children.
