The community's beloved summer hangout spot completed its latest upgrade with a fresh spray pad surface, giving the park a revitalized look.

According to an alert published on City of Fayetteville's official website, the new installation, complete with updated water features, was thoroughly inspected and is now deemed ready for public use. Kids and families are expected to flock to the park, with all the water antics included at no charge – such a classic American bargain!

City officials are reminding visitors to play it safe and stick to the rules. "Residents and guests are welcome to enjoy the spray pad and the rest of City Center Park free of charge, but we do ask that you adhere to the posted rules of conduct," states the city's online announcement.

Normal operating hours for the spray pad are set to probably run from Tuesday to Sunday, 9 AM to 7 PM, right up until Labor Day weekend. Mondays are reserved for maintenance, except for Memorial Day and Labor Day, when the park will be available for additional enjoyment. Let’s just make sure not to show up on Tuesday, May 28, when the park is due for a brief timeout to undergo routine maintenance.
