Great Parks announced the opening of its two wet playgrounds: Parky's Ark and Parky's Wetland Adventure.
Parky's Ark is located in Winton Woods, while Parky's Wetland Adventure is at Woodland Mound.
Both wet playgrounds are open seven days per week from May 25 through Aug. 11. Beginning Aug. 12, the wet playgrounds are closed on weekdays.
