Garden Rapids at The Big Pool is now an award winning pool. Jennifer Cunningham, Garden City assistant city manager, said the pool was awarded the World Waterpark Association’s Leading Edge award at the Garden City Commission meeting Monday. Cunningham said she didn’t realize how big of a deal the award was until she and Aaron Stewart, Garden City Parks and Recreation director, got to the WWA’s annual Symposium & Trade Show, which ran from Oct. 19-22 in San Antonio, Texas. All of the other projects on the slate cost between $30 million and $50 million, one of them was in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, which looked like something out of a magazine, Cunningham said. Garden City was the only municipality receiving this award.
