Monroe Mayor Donna Douglas, middle, joins local children in getting a bucket full of cold water dumped on her head Aug. 4 at the city’s new splash pad.

The City of Monroe and Green County Leaders held a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Aug. 4 for the new splash pad located at Twining Park in Monroe. Recently picnic tables and shade umbrellas were added to the area surrounding the waterworks, which offers spectators a reprieve from the summer sun.
