The Gathering Place sits on the Arkansas River and encompasses water elements throughout. GPSI wanted to highlight the grand design of the park by incorporating two primary water feature zones. There is a mist mountain, designed for quiet observation, that includes a natural Koi pond with live fish and the Obelisk Mountain with a fog and runnel system. Then as you make your way through the park, there is a Labyrinth splash pad that creates a mazelike glass panel system and a collection of interactive water-play toys that are both educational and fun for kids of all ages.

Type of Fountain: Water feature experience
GPSI was our subcontractor for the construction of the water play elements at our facility. Their knowledge, expertise, experience and dedication were true assets in completing our project. As with most projects there are things that did not turn out as expected but this was not from a lack of their expertise or dedication. I would highly recommend GPSI to anyone looking for a great company to install, design, or advise you on a water play feature or pool.
