About the Venue

Fort Scott Splash Pad & Sensory Park is a newer downtown water-play destination at Skubitz Plaza designed around inclusive, barrier-free play. Project materials describe it as an all-inclusive, fully accessible park intended to serve children of varied ages and abilities, with the splash pad paired with a sensory-focused play environment.
