For hands-on family fun and imaginative heat relief, spray parks are catching on in communities around the world.

As the question changes from “Should we construct a spray park?” to “What’s the best design for our spray park?”, professionals, such as landscape architects, parks and recreation managers and aquatic designers, are recognizing the need for collaboration.

What’s emerging is a focus on better design from concept through operation, maintenance and paying the water bill. Of particular concern are water conservation and safety, with an emphasis on better water-treatment system design.
