Picture
Area: Whitby North

Hours of Operation:  9am to 9pm (seasonal June to September - weather permitting)

Installed: 2007; resurfaced from rubber to concrete pad in 2009 (as the original rubber surface became slippery and unsuitable for play)

Age Range: 2 years and up

Parking: plenty of parking in the McKinney Centre parking lot off of McKinney Drive

Ground Cover: concrete

Main Equipment: 
  • 1 spray arch tunnel
  • 1 water blaster
  • 1 bucket dump
  • multiple spray posts
  • multiple in ground jets

Accessibility Features: wheelchair accessible

Facilities/Surrounding Park Area/Other:
  • washrooms (inside the McKinney Centre)
  • see McKinney Park post
  • Skate Park

Seating: 3 park benches around the Splash Pad, 3 park benches in nearby covered shelter

Shade: no shade on the Splash Pad, small covered shelter nearby

Overall assessment: A very good Splash Pad for multiple ages and well spaced out for many kids to play.  It's in a great location as kids can spend all day here with the McKinney Park playground and adjacent Skate Park right next to the Splash Pad.  Parents be on the lookout for sneaky kids trying to spray you with the multi-directional water blaster at this Splash Pad!
