What is the Saturday Slip ‘N Slide

This summer you can fight the heat by bringing your family and friends to enjoy some giant Slip-N-Slides! The greater Jenison community is invited to slide down the hill of the Soccer Bowl at Rosewood Park(known locally as Charlie's Dump). This has become a tradition that locals, Steve and Shelley Frody, started about a decade ago. This will be the 10th year of slipping and sliding, not counting 2020 and 2021 because of the pandemic.

Saturday Slip ‘N Slide Activities

The day will be filled with all sorts of festivities for slip 'n sliders. There will be raffles, children's activities, the slip n slide, kiddy water area, crafts, food, and more! All slides start on top of the hillsides, and depending on the heat, lines are known to move pretty quickly.
