Celebrate the day with a bouncy house, yard games, and free food while supplies last. Activities will begin at 1:00 pm when the pool opens.
To celebrate the last day, access to the pool will be free.
Romkey Park was established in 1956 with the main feature, the Moorhead Municipal Pool opening its doors in 1958. The pool has provided generations of Moorhead families with great summertime memories but has lasted long past it’s expected lifetime.
Reimagine Romkey aims to enhance outdoor recreational offerings within the neighborhood. By replacing underutilized amenities, expanding recreational opportunities, and reconstructing the Moorhead Municipal Pool, the project seeks to revitalize the park and promote community engagement in outdoor activities.
The City prioritized the community's input regarding desired park amenities, alongside pool reconstruction. Following thorough feedback analysis, key amenities emerged. The finalized park concept reflects these preferences and features:
- Pool with diving boards and water slide
- Zero-Entry Wading Pool
- Splashpad outside the pool fencing, accessible free of charge and extending the season
- Community Room
- Skatepark
- Traditional Playground
- Natural Playground
- Food Forest and Sustainable Landscaping
- Basketball Courts
- Sledding Hill
- Pickleball Courts
- Soccer Field
- Picnic Shelter
- New Trails and Sidewalks
