Splash Pad Update
The opening of the Splash Pads at Gregg-Clarke Park, Steeplechase Park, and La Verde Park has been delayed to early June to allow the City to ensure each location is fully staffed, properly maintained, and safe for families to enjoy. We appreciate the community’s patience as we navigate this change.
We encourage families to visit the James Adkins Pool for open swim Tuesday through Sunday, and Fridays are FREE for residents.
Be sure to follow our City of Kyle Parks and Recreation Instagram and Facebook pages and CityofKyle.gov/PARD for updates.
Luckily, the James Adkins Pool brings plenty of opportunity to get outside, cool down, and have fun this summer. Check out CityofKyle.gov/Pool for more information.
