Splash Pad

If you’ve spent a summer in Ord, you know how brutal the Nebraska heat can get — and this splash pad is basically the town’s saving grace from June through August. Kids of all ages show up here to run through the water features, and honestly, the parents hanging around the edges don’t look like they mind the spray either. It’s one of those spots where you’ll probably run into half the people you know, which is pretty standard for a town this size. Pack a towel and don’t bother checking the weather first — that’s what you’re here for.
