From the Organizer
Splish-Splash this summer at the Splash Zone Aquatic Center! The 5K-10K-1 Mile races will start and finish at the Eagle City Soccer Complex (which is located next to the Splash Zone Aquatic Center!) The courses are out and back (heading North) on the Simon Kenton Trail (paved).
After the race all participants will receive entry into an exclusive party inside Splash Zone from 7:00pm - 9:00pm!
At Splash Zone, you’ll slip and dart along 400 feet of water slides, float around our 280-foot lazy river, and spin around the water vortex–Ohio’s first bowl slide! Splash Zone includes zero-depth beach entry, a spray ground, a 25-yard competition pool and a pair of one-meter diving boards. Splash Zone is an ADA-Accessible facility offering zero-depth pool entry and a lift system.
The after race party will include food, drinks, snacks, treats, music and prizes!
Please read the Splash Zone policies and rules (link below).
Splash Zone policy is that all children 17 years and younger must be accompanied by a responsible adult, 18 or older with proper age identification and they must remain inside the waterpark at ALL times.
Every parent, or responsible adult over 18, needs to register for a race in order to gain access into the Splash Zone party.
All children 5 years and under are free if accompanied by a responsible adult who is registered for a race.
Since this is private party, you are permitted to bring in your own food/snacks as well.
