The James F. Holland Memorial Park's splash pad has reopened, just in time to beat the summer heat.
The city celebrated the pad's long-awaited reopening with by throwing a "Party in the Park" event on July 3, where city staff handed out free hotdogs while supplies lasted. Palm Coast families flocked to the park in droves to enjoy the water.
The splash pad originally opened in May 2021, but closed later that fall because the flooring of the splash pad area had created a safety hazard. The city sued the companies involved in the splash pad's original construction in November 2022.
In October 2023, Palm Coast hired Sabounji Construction to repair the splash pad, a $3 million project. The construction team finished on schedule, just in time for the July Fourth celebrations.
