24 July- Splash Pad

Come on out to the Splash Pad this Friday at 10 am-

In case of rain, we'll meet at Fascinate-U.

I copied this great info from http://fortbraggbusykids.blogspot.com/2009/06/splash-pad.html- check out that blog for more info on fun things in Fayetteville.

Splash Pad
500 Fisher Street at Christina Smith Park
910-433-1572

Fight the heat with a splash of water! Come enjoy the pad as water sprinkles from a rainbow of colored arches. Onlookers can relax under the shaded tables near the splash pad. Open to the public and fun for all ages. The Pad closes on September 30.

Monday-Friday, 3 pm-6 pm (it opens at 10 now that school is out)

Saturday -10 am -6 pm

Sunday - 1 pm -6pm; free admission

that is off 301 across from the pwc. It is a park that has a playground, rest rooms, picnic area and a nice set of sprinklers. It is free to go and the sprinklers are nice if you have little ones but don't really want to go to a pool. There are an assortment of sprinklers they can run thru, under and over. The pad where the water is has a fence around it with just one way in or out (right next to the rest rooms). The last time I was there you had to bring your own chairs or blankets to sit on the grass around the sprinklers but to me that isn't a huge deal.

From Fayetteville Observer:

The small, water-toy filled Splash Pad, located at Christina Smith Park, sits just outside downtown Fayetteville. Despite its small size, the Pad packs a punch with its water fountains, sprayers and cannons, all for free.

The details: 500 Fisher St. Call the J.S. Spivey Recreation Center at 433-1572. Admission: Free
Hours: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday to Saturday, 1 to 6 p.m. Sunday
Food: There is no snack bar, but visitors are allowed to bring food, which cannot be eaten inside the Pad.
Picnic area: Benches sit under a canopy next to the Splash Pad. Visitors can take their food there. The area can be rented out, though, so if it’s too crowded, find a shady spot just outside the Pad to enjoy your snacks.
Lifeguards: There are no lifeguards on duty, so no children under 10 years old are allowed

Fun Fridays!

Hi! I saw the Manna Mommies blog and thought it was a great idea to keep everyone posted on what fun things we're up to. And an easy way to get info to new people.

so here's what we're up to the next couple of weeks:

17 July Big T's This Friday we'll meet at Big T's- it is right on the lake in Hope Mills where the parks and rec does all their events. I'm going to pack a lunch. you can also buy lunch there. Jess Badders said the hawaiian shaved ices there are very cheap and yummy too. There's a playground, shaded area, a lake which kids can wade or swim in.
