About the Venue

Westwood Park Splash Pad is Minden's newer public splash pad at Westwood Park. Official announcements describe fun, interactive water elements and position it as a family-friendly summer recreation feature within the larger park. It is a stronger choice than a tiny standalone pad when you want a fuller park outing, but families should still confirm same-day operating status because new municipal splash features can close temporarily for maintenance.
