3 Dearborn Splash Pads Just Opened Up

DEARBORN, MI —Splash pads are now open at three Dearborn sites as part of the city’s outdoor aquatic season. City officials said a part failure delayed the opening this year, but things are now in full swing.

The splash pads, located at Crowley, Hemlock and Whitmore-Bolles Parks, are open daily from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Kids can use the splash pads, which feature action-automated nozzles and water dispensers, for free and no pool tag is required. Children under the age of 10 must be supervised by a responsible person age 16 or over, though.

Dearborn's community pools

Dearborn’s community pool at Levagood Park, Dunworth Pool, is in full operation, as are the city’s neighborhood pools at Summer Stephens, Ten Eyck and Lapeer Parks.

Dunworth will features open swimming weekdays from 1-8 p.m. and Saturday, Sunday and holidays from noon to 8 p.m.

Dearborn’s other three pools offer open swimming daily from noon to 6 p.m.

The city’s other outdoor pool, Ford Woods, which has undergone deconstruction and a complete rebuild—resulting in a more modern and expansive facility with additional amenities—is scheduled to open later this summer.

All users of the city’s outdoor pools must either purchase a swim tag, available at the service desk of the Ford Community & Performing Arts Center, or pay a daily admission fee.
