Vote for Carleton’s Splash Pad!
Carleton Community Splash Pad will be a water feature in the centre of the Lower West Side community playground. The splash pad will be a place for children to gather and to have access to active, outdoor play, in the heart of a priority neighborhood that is known to have a 33% poverty rate. The play park is adjacent to a very busy community garden and neighborhood wellness centre, as well as the local food bank. Children in this area do not have access to a community pool or beach, as transportation is a barrier to most.
