What parents say
"Just moved to sun prairie Wisconsin and looked for a splash pad nearby. Decided to come here it was relatively close. I was shocked when arriving and seeing the amount of junkies and homeless people around. I planned to have a fun day with my kids but the pictures posted I assuming are old. STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS PLACE. I am surprised this setup is here and allowed the park looks nice but needs to be more welcoming for families . But I jab posted updated pictures for everyone with thoughts of coming here."
