Century’s New Splash Pad Installed
September 6, 2016
Century’s new splash pad has been installed, but is not officially open yet.
While the splash pad has been operational over the past few days, there is still another control part to be installed before an official opening day and before hours of operation are announced, according to Mayor Freddie McCall. At times, the splash pad may not function until it’s officially opened.
A $50,000 Florida Recreation Development Assistance Program grant was awarded to the town last October to fund the splash pad. The competitive grant program provides state funds to develop lands for public outdoor recreational use, such as building or renovating sports facilities or playgrounds. Century was the only recipient of the grant last year in Escambia County.

Pip pip — HURRAY ! ! !
The kids seem to love this, even the 1 year olds. I have never seen one cry on these pads. I feel they are much safer than a pool and it gets them ready for swimming lessons, they are used to water in the face.. That sure was a brave bunny, lol.
