Looking for a fun, refreshing activity for the whole family this summer? The splash pad at Ron Wood Park (5900 W New Bingham Hwy,) is opening Friday, May 24th at 10 AM. The splash pad is open seven days a week from 10 AM to 8 PM, typically from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Here\u2019s everything you need to know to make the most of your visit!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keeping the Splash Pad Clean and Safe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Salt Lake County Health Department conducts routine and surprise inspections of the splash pad, ensuring it meets the same standards as any public pool. Keeping this space clean and safe for everyone is a top priority, so please follow the guidelines and report any issues you notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you turn on the splash pad?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the water isn\u2019t running, head to the two blue pillars on the splash pad. Tap either one a few times on the top with your hand, and the water will start flowing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How long does the splash pad stay on once activated?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The water will run for 30 minutes. If it turns off while you\u2019re still enjoying it, just tap the blue pillars again for another 30 minutes of fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why does the splash pad automatically turn off after just a few minutes?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The splash pad has a water-saving feature that shuts off the water for two minutes if the wind is too strong. This helps conserve water. Once the wind calms down, tap the blue pillars again to restart the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What should I do if the water doesn\u2019t turn on after tapping the blue pillars?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, check for any signs in the area that might explain the situation. If there are no notices and the water still isn\u2019t running, call us at 801-301-1833 for assistance. If it\u2019s windy, wait a few minutes for the wind to die down before trying again, as the splash pad\u2019s wind sensor might be temporarily shutting off the water to save it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
