Lots of the pools in Tulsa cost nothing and sometimes $1 at the most. I also think it is wrong to charge entance for adults that are only there to supervise. Maybe a band could be given to those not allowed in the pool?? I think the City needs to rethink some of their decisions. I am thankful that thee is a place close by to go to have cool fun, but we won't be able to afford to go there more than a few times all summer.

You can get a summer long pass to Big Splash for less than that! This does not seem right! $65 a month for a pass is ridiculous. You can get a summer long pass to Big Splash for less than that!

I am also displeased with having the people to pay that don't swim, such as my grandfather who is elderly and takes the kids. I believe that they should at least have a discounted rate for seniors. But we have enjoyed going to the pool this summer, we are glad that Sapulpa does have a pool now. I agree that the summer passes should be more inexpensive, like around $85-$100 for a whole family.

My staff and I have decided to remove the existing paint surface. We are planning to sand blast the paint off of the Liberty Park splashpad surface tomorrow June 22.

I see the attempt, but poorly executed and ill planned.

We bring a daycare to the splash pad and almost all the kids fall and end up with scrapes and bruises. It is nice place but don't know if we will bring them back.

The only problem I have is the play ground equipment has spider webs ALL over it and my kids couldn't even play on it. Plus the jungle gym looks like it should be repainted. There was a HUGE hole in the ground right in front of this jungle gym that my kids fell in!! The grass was not maintained at all it was very long. All and all it was a great time but could use some TLC!! Brought my family to the Sahoma Lake this weekend, and it was very peaceful.

Maintenance Crew is doing everything they can to rectify this problem. The splashpad surface was painted before opening with paint that was supposed to be for pool surfaces but unfortunately isn't doing the job. Maintenance has since painted a grit clear coat on the surface to help with the excessive slipping. The Parks Dept. does whatever is necessary to keep all faclities up to date and safe for all to enjoy. Regards, Jan Duke/Admin. Assist. Dir. Sapulpa Parks Dept. The Parks Dept.
