About the Venue

Bowdoin Park Splash Pad is a county-run warm-weather water-play stop inside one of southern Dutchess County's largest parks. Families can pair the splash area with the playground, picnic areas, accessible play spaces, and hiking trails for a longer outing. It works especially well for mixed-age siblings because the larger park offers more to do before and after water play.
