Enjoy Last Days of Summer at Amarillo’s Splash Pads

This past weekend saw the end of summer for some of the pools in Amarillo, Texas. Even though two of the area public pools have closed for the season, that doesn't mean the fun is over.

Thompson Park Pool is still open on weekends through Labor Day, and there's great news regarding Amarillo's splash pads. There are still plenty of chances to enjoy some outdoor summer fun.

Amarillo's splash pads are a big attraction for the parks that have them. They're always full on hot sunny days. Families spend tons of time at them.
