Fort Worth Zoo

- Experience a fun-filled aquatic play safari through Africa with themed spray features and a custom Fun Formations™Multi-level aquatic play structure.

- Part of a 2015 park expansion, Ft. Worth Zoo received a private donation to create a safari-themed splash park to attract more guests to the zoo. Properly named as Safari Splash, the water play area includes a multilevel structure with 4 slides & lots of spray effects. It’s surrounded by an assortment of themed spray features such as an elephant slide, elephant and lion sprayers, and ground sprays as alligators, snake & turtles. The wide variety of features appeal to multiple age groups and create a fun place for people of all abilities to play. Ticket revenue has been on the rise since the installation of the splash park and continues to be a water play destination for patrons all over Texas.

Great Wolf Lodge

- Great Wolf Mountain was created for Great Wolf Lodge to become the signature water feature for their resorts. This unique piece, hand sculpted by our lead artist, stands 30 feet high with an 11 foot diameter base. We added recorded audio of a wolf howling to create an immersive experience. When the Great Wolf howls, it signals the emergence of a 40 foot diameter sheet of water that cascades down the Wolf Mountain to the pool below.

Shady Lane Park

- Part of a 2013 park revitalization project, Shady Lane Park is nature-themed playground that celebrates the wetlands in the Houston area by mimicking the natural landscape and bayous in the play area designed Talley Landscape Architects in conjunction with M2L Associates Landscape Architecture and donated by PlayCore, a longstanding partner and donor to the Parks Build Community projects. The water play area features concrete alligators, boulders, and ground spray water effects in natural bronze finishes. The dry play area includes a climbing log, tree house and a miniature wetland area for outdoor education.

 

Sheltowee Falls

- The installation of Sheltowee Falls splash pad in Morehead, Kentucky all began with a structurally unsound community pool. The city was forced to shut down the 40 year old pool and after much consideration, chose to install a splash pad. With a lake and a large indoor university pool within the community, the concept of installing an all-inclusive splash pad facility was appealing.

- The city worked with Morehead Tourism and the County Fiscal Court to purchase a 5,900 square foot space for the placement of the pad. The city worked with DWA Recreation and Water Odyssey to design a wilderness-themed splash pad that reflected the uniqueness of the city and surroundings. A recirculation system was installed for the purposes of water and environmental conservation.

- The prominent features were custom-designed for Sheltowee Falls including a one of a kind treehouse with two water slides, an 18ft eagle spray feature and forty additional water features placed around the pad for fun and entertainment. The design is meant to be entirely inclusive with age-appropriate play zones as well as ASTM and ADA standards.

- Once the design and manufacturing were complete, the team decided to name the park after Daniel Boone’s Native American name, “Sheltowee.” The many cascading water features lead to the selection of “Falls,” producing “Sheltowee Falls” as the name of the new community amenity.
