City breaks ground on splash pad at Rotary Park

ROSEVILLE — City officials wearing hard hats broke ground on a splash pad at Rotary Park May 27.

“It’s a great, great thing for Roseville,” Mayor Pro Tem Catherine Haugh said at the event. “We’ve waited a long time to improve this park, and we’re going to bring something for everybody.”

The splash pad is set to be up and running by Memorial Day of 2026. Other improvements slated for the park include a fitness course, pickleball courts, a new walking path with corresponding benches, a gazebo and new playground surfaces. The fitness course, called X-Treme Ninja Course, is expected to be installed in the park this fall.

“That should be one of the first things installed because we already, physically, have that in our possession,” Department of Public Services Director Rob DeBruyn said.
