Ok so this park isn't *technically* in the Tri-Cities, but it is very very very close to Coquitlam!
This park has a structure for 5-12s and one for tots, a spray park and a pool with two slides! Two sets of washrooms, trails along the river and tons of picnic tables round off this well designed park. Plus is gets major points for being Skytain accessible, just a short walk from the Braid Skytrain station.
One neat feature about this spray park is the ground is rubber: "" This new attractive surface can withstand weather, is easy to maintain and provides traction for little feet scampering around the new water features." (City of New Westminster Website)
