Summer Brownsburg Splash Pad To Reopen This Summer

The splash pad at Williams Park will reopen to the public on Saturday, May 31, at

10 a.m. with a grand opening ceremony, celebrating its recent upgrades. Originally built in 2015, the 10-year-old facility has undergone significant improvements, including expanded play areas, additional water features, and upgraded drainage. The underground water lines have also been enhanced to improve functionality. To provide more comfort for visitors, new picnic tables with umbrellas have been added, offering extra shade for supervising adults, while shade sails remain throughout the play space.

The splash pad, located at the back of Williams Park at 940 S. Locust Ln., will be open daily from 10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. through August 31. It will be closed on Tuesdays for maintenance until 3:30 p.m. and may close at any time due to maintenance or severe weather.

The temperature must be at least 72 degrees for the splash pad to operate.

The aquatic play facility provides fun for the whole family with interactive spray and play features. This zero-depth splash pad offers a variety of water sensations, including flowing, misting, and jetting.

With over 30 features spread across three distinct play areas, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. The toddler bay includes smaller, gentle spray features designed for little ones,

while the teen bay offers exciting spray cannons and splashing effects. Families can come together in the shared bay, which now features a thrilling 21-foottall tipping bucket that pours 40 gallons of water every 5-6 minutes.

Each sequence lasts 4 minutes before the activator needs to be pushed again. The splash pad uses a 3,000-gallon recirculation tank for water treatment. UV and chemical treatments keep the water as clean and safe as possible.

Looking ahead, the adjacent playground will be resurfaced with a rubber pour-in-place surface, creating a safer and more comfortable transition for kids as they move between the playground and splash pad.

The facility is free to use.

CENTIER BANK OPENS FIRST HENDRICKS COUNTY LOCATION IN BROWNSBURG Centier Bank, Indiana’s largest private, family-owned bank, opened its new Brownsburg branch, located at 1000 E. Main Street. Celebrating its grand opening in January, the banking center serves as Centier’s first branch in Hendricks County and its ninth overall in Greater Indianapolis.

“We are eager to extend Centier’s reach to Brownsburg and expand our footprint to 12 counties with over 60 locations throughout Indiana,” said Michael E. Schrage, Centier Bank’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board.

This full-service banking center in Brownsburg will provide a complete suite of products and services designed to meet the needs of businesses and individuals throughout the

Brownsburg community. The branch will offer amenities such as a coffee bar and free coin machine for customer use.

The location’s leadership team will consist of Branch Manager Devon Nelson and Assistant Manager Stephanie Baker, with support from Ben Studebaker, Indianapolis Regional Sales Manager, and Troy Kafka, Greater Indianapolis Market President.

“These exceptional individuals are ready to make a positive impact and uphold the bank’s commitment to exceptional customer service, innovation, and community engagement,” said Troy Kafka, Centier Bank’s Greater Indianapolis Market President, “With exceptional banking services, dedicated staff and caring customer relationships at the forefront of

its operations, Centier provides top-tier financial support throughout the communities we serve.”

Forbes has ranked Centier on its Best-in-State Banks list for Indiana for the past seven years, with the bank earning the No. 1 spot in 2024. American Banker recognized Centier as the No.1 “Best Bank to Work For” in Indiana for 2024, and the bank has been named a Best Place to Work by the Indiana Chamber for 18 consecutive years. These accolades validate the bank’s commitment to serving as a leading example for financial services, customer service, and employee satisfaction, solidifying its position as a trusted partner for individuals, families, and businesses.
