Get Wet, Stay Cool
The backyard of the Jones Center becomes the main event: inflatable water slides, water balloons, games, music, and dancing. For families with toddlers, there’s a dedicated Toddlers Zone so even the littlest guests get in on the action. Games and inflatables run continuously throughout the event, so there’s no rush to get there at any particular time, though showing up early means more slide time before the crowds fill in.

Pack your swimsuit, throw a lawn chair in the car, and plan on staying a while. Concessions will be available for purchase if you work up an appetite between water balloon rounds.

A Backyard Classic, Community-Sized

Splash Bash is the kind of thing that’s hard to explain to someone who hasn’t been. Kids end up talking about it for weeks. Adults who show up just to chaperon usually end up having a pretty good time too.
Just don’t forget the sunscreen.
