One of Williamson County’s most popular recreational facilities, the Quarry Splash Pad at Southwest Williamson County Regional Park, is open for the summer!  The Splash Pad is a unique park that uses existing rock features from the quarry formerly located on the land to create an exciting water experience.  Situated on approximately two acres, play areas include the Quarry, Rapids and the Sand Play Area.  Water features include water cannons, waterfalls, and water jets.  There is no standing water and no lifeguard on duty. 

The splash pad will be closed on Monday, June 3, 2013, for maintenance.  To follow updates on the splash pad operations, including scheduled maintenance, call 512-943-1919. 

Onsite facilities at the splash pad include two large pavilions and two birthday pavilions which are  available by reservation.   The pavilion rental does not include the individual entry fee into the splash pad.  For a list of available facilities with their rental fees click here, or visit the parks website at http://parks.wilco.org/.  To reserve one of the pavilions, call the park office at (512)943-1920.  
          A few guidelines to keep in mind while enjoying the pavilions and water areas include:
          •   Food is permitted in the park, but no glass is allowed.
          •   Guests are asked to clean-up after their event to include the removal of any tape, string or ribbon.
          •   No piñatas, water balloons, or confetti may be used as they can damage the water filtration system.
          •   Pets are not permitted, with the exception of service animals.
          •   Climbing on rocks, skateboards and bicycles are not permitted in the water areas.
          •   Smoking, and the use of alcohol or tobacco products, is prohibited.
          The splash pad is open daily from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. for an entrance fee of $1 per person.  An automated pay station (located under the awning at the restroom building) only accepts paper bills up to $20 and quarters; and does give change.  Admission wrist bands may be pre-purchased for large groups at the park office.  
In addition to the Quarry Splash Pad, Cedar Rock Railroad (a miniature train) and a small playscape for children are available in the Southwest Williamson County Regional Park, located at 3005 C.R. 175 just north of FM 1431.  For more information on all Williamson County parks and recreation programs, call 512-943-1920, or visit the parks office at 219 Perry Mayfield, Leander, Texas 78641.
