Stay Cool!

Columbia is already living up to it's nickname of being "Famously Hot!".  School is out for most kids in the Midlands and the high temps make it hard to find some outdoor fun.  Here are some ways to beat the heat and stay cool in Columbia!

Splash Pads:
There are several splash pads to choose from in the Midlands. Check out these ways to cool off.  The largest splash pad or spray pool as they are also called is located behind the Drew Wellness Center at Drew Park.

Other pads can be found at: Elmwood Park, Heathwood Park, Sims Park, Saluda Shoals Park and Willie B. Caracter Park in Lexington.  Contact the rec departments to make sure the splash pads are on and operational.

Water Parks:
If you're looking for a real water park, check out Palmetto Falls at Fort Jackson. Admission is $9.50 per person and the park is open to the public Tuesday-Friday.  The park features a family pool, water slides, kiddie pool and lazy river.
