6. Oconomowoc Rotary Splash Pad – Opening summer 2024

Stay tuned to the Oconomowoc Rotary Splash Pad Facebook page for updates and how to fundraise to speed up the process!

Full disclosure, I, Erin, am on the Oconomowoc Rotary Splash Pad committee. Ground breaking took place in fall 2023 at Roosevelt Park to start this project! More funds are needed to fulfill all phases of the project, but the project is moving forward! There is still about $80,000 left to fundraise to make this the best splash pad in Oconomowoc. Donations can be made online.

*I had the chance to interview Maria Jorgensen, age 16, and her brother Bobby, age 13. They recently donated $1,000 from the Jorgensen Foundation, which is through the Greater Milwaukee Foundation. Maria’s and Bobby’s grandparents started this Foundation almost 20 years ago for them and their older cousins.  

The grandkids meet to discuss which nonprofit they will donate to. Each brings 3+ nonprofit ideas prepared to share with the group for discussion. The grandparents and parents are present, but the grandkids are in the role of decision-making. 

It was Bobby’s idea to donate $1,000 to the Oconomowoc Splash Pad. He wanted to grow and help his community. He really enjoyed how local this project is to his own home, living on Okauchee Lake and how it could help local families. He recognized the Lake Country area is an area with a lot of water, yet not all families have equal access to the water. The Oconomowoc Rotary Splash Pad, once fully funded, will be accessible for free, no cost to any family, and bring more opportunities for playing in the water.   

The Jorgensen siblings joined the Foundation when they each turned 12 years old. They are the two youngest grandchildren on the Foundation currently. They will stay on and involved until they graduate from college.
