Four legs were in fashion Saturday at Longiew’s Ingram Pool for the annual Dog Days of Summer event.

Those facilities are:

Jack Mann Splash Pad, 100 H.G. Mosley Pkwy.;

Armstrong Splash Pad at Broughton Park, 801 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd.;

Rotary Park Splash Pad, 500 Baylor Drive; and

Stamper Park Splash Pad, 400 Fair St.

The Spring Hill Park Splash Pad is closed for construction.
