βοΈπWeek 1 of Summer Camps is in the books, and what an incredible start to the season! βοΈπ
Our campers hit the sports courts, pitched their entrepreneurial ideas to the sharks, explored exciting STEM LEGO adventures, and stepped into the world of famous art heists. From active play and creative thinking to hands-on learning and problem-solving, it has been a week full of fun, discovery, and new friendships.
The summer fun is just getting started! Wylie Recreation offers a wide variety of camps designed to keep kids active, engaged, learning, and making memories all summer long.
Browse the online Activity Menu and register today. We can't wait to spend the summer with you! π

At this time, the Community Park Splash Pad remains closed due to a malfunctioning safety component.
To ensure the safest and cleanest water possible for families, Wylie's splash pads utilize two layers of water treatment: traditional chemical treatment and an advanced UV treatment system. The UV component requires a specialized replacement part that must be custom-ordered.
The replacement part has been ordered, and staff are prepared to install it as soon as it arrives. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to restore operations safely. Please continue to follow our social media channels for the latest updates.
In the meantime, the East Meadow Splash Pad is open and ready for summer fun! You can find it at 1500 W. Brown Street.

Repairs are taking longer than anticipated, but staff are working hard to get the issue resolved and reopen the splash pad as soon as it is safe to do so. Weβll continue to provide updates along the way.
In the meantime, we invite you to cool off at our second splash pad location at East Meadow! π¦βοΈ
