BOISE, Idaho — The summer heat we expect every year in Idaho is starting to roll in, with temperatures expected to reach a high of 86 in the Treasure Valley. Thankfully, parks across Boise are gearing up to open a variety of water features to help the public beat the heat and keep enjoying the city's parks.
Splash pads and fountains are scheduled to turn on for the season on Monday, May 27. The water features you can expect to see at parks near you are:
- The 70-foot-long interactive water tunnel at Ann Morrison Park
- The Borah Park spray pad
- The mister poles at Bowler Park
- The splash pad at Comba Park
- The mister poles at Franklin Park
- The fountain at Grove Plaza
- The splash pad at Molenaar Park
You can see a full list of the Boise splash pads here.
Boise isn't the only city opening water features as the temperature warms in the Valley. The city of Nampa is hosting a ribbon-cutting event for a new splash pad at Midway Park on Wednesday, May 22. In addition to the new splash pad, the park also features an outdoor gym, basketball courts, and a practice field.
