The Sprayground has closed for the season.
Please check back for next year's details.   


Located at the Dorbrook Recreation Area, the recently renovated Spraygound is a water-enhanced playground. During the renovation, the site received all-new spray features including: raining leaves, domes of cascading water, and a series of high to low play troughs. A new bright blue surface was installed and the pumping system was replaced for improved water filtration.

 


Designed to provide refreshment for park visitors and participants in Park System summer camp programs, the Sprayground is a great place to cool off and play with water.
