Smithville Splash Pad Operating With No Issues

The Smithville Splash pad has been in high-use since being installed two-months ago.

Mayor Josh Miller said the project was completed to the city’s standards and has not faced issues since opening.

“Smithville is a small town, we don’t have the luxuries of Cookeville and other big towns have, but I do think it is important that we invest in our kids,” Miller said. “It’s definitely been a huge success and a great asset to the park.”

Miller said the 2,400 square foot facility includes several water features at Green Brook Park. The splash pad is open from noon to 7:00 p.m. until the end of the summer.

Miller said the project was first approved in late 2021 and was completed in June. Miller said the addition will go with new playground improvements that was just approved this month.
