The City of Salina Parks and Recreation Department announces the temporary closure of Kenwood Cove effective immediately following a hazardous materials (hazmat) incident identified within the facility.
Out of an abundance of caution and to protect the health and safety of guests and staff, the waterpark has been closed while appropriate emergency response protocols, environmental assessments, and remediation procedures are completed. Local emergency responders are actively working to assess the situation and ensure the facility is safe before reopening.
At this time:
• The facility is closed to all guests and staff until further notice.
• All scheduled programs and public swim at the waterpark are canceled until the facility is safe to reopen.
• Additional updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
• We anticipate being able to open the waterpark on Thursday morning for water walking.
Questions regarding emergency response operations may be directed to local emergency management officials.
The Parks and Recreation Department will continue coordinating with emergency responders to determine when the facility can safely reopen. For updates, please visit salina-ks.gov or follow official social media channels.
