About the Venue

Rotary Park Splash Pad is one of Johnson City's two city-operated splash pads and sits inside a popular 10.4-acre family park. It pairs zero-depth water play with an inclusive playground, covered picnic shelters, restrooms, picnic tables, and a multi-use field, making it easy to turn a splash stop into a longer park visit. This is a strong pick for toddlers through elementary-age kids who do best with free-form water play rather than a full pool day.
