Residents Invited to Vote on New Splash Pad Theme for McCarroll Park

The Municipality of Meaford is excited to announce that a brandnew splash pad is coming to McCarroll Park, with construction planned for a grand opening this summer. Residents are now invited to help shape the project by voting on the splash pad’s theme.

Two fun, family-friendly theme options are being considered:

Residents can view more rendered images of both splash pad design options and cast their vote online at meaford.ca/splashpad. Voting is also available in person at the Meaford Public Library, where paper ballots can be completed and placed in the designated ballot box.

Voting is open now and closes on Monday, February 2.

The new splash pad at McCarroll Park will provide a free, accessible, and inclusive place for children and families to cool off and play during the summer months.

For more information or to vote online, visit meaford.ca/splashpad.
