TOWN OF BURGAW PARKS AND RECREATION Splash Pad Master Plan
need irrigation. Since water does not need to be treated, less regular maintenance is involved than if using a recirculation system. Design After working with The Parks Foundation of Burgaw, the department’s Parks and Recreation Advisory Board, and the Town of Burgaw Board of Commissioners, it was decided to use a recirculation system in order to reduce wasted water and provide clean water to splash pad users. A proposed design was developed based on budget criteria, location, and community needs. The design is a splash pad with about a 1500-square-foot area and includes multiple overhead and ground sprayers, tipping buckets, and water cannons of different heights and interactive abilities. Surfacing Surfacing for the splash pad facility will be provided by a local company, GAF, who will be donating and applying their pavement surfacing material called StreetBond. This material protects and preserves pavement and provides a non-slip surface. StreetBond is environmentally friendly as it can be recycled with asphalt. The coating will reflect heat, an important aspect during the summers in Burgaw.
