About the Venue

Eastern Henrico Recreation Center Spray Park is a seasonal public splash spot just east of Richmond with more support amenities than a simple neighborhood pad. Families get the splash area plus a playground, picnic shelter, restrooms, trails, and the broader recreation-center setting. It is a practical choice for a straightforward free outing with easy facilities. The park setting makes supervision and comfort simpler than at many smaller standalone splash features.
