About the Venue

Carter Street R-Center Spray Park is one of Rochester's free neighborhood spray parks run through the city's recreation system. It is designed as a simple public summer cool-down spot rather than a destination water park. Families looking for a no-cost local splash stop in the city will appreciate the straightforward access and R-Center setting.
