Splash Pad park & Splashpad Newsletter
This website and monthly newsletter started as a group email in 1999 to build community support for re-designing the previous concrete “splash pad” into what became a vibrant park that houses Oakland’s largest farmers’ market. The website was launched in 2007 and has since broadened its focus to cover the Grand Lake and surrounding neighborhoods, including the Splash Pad park.
