Lee’s Summit Parks and Recreation announces Summit Waves Opening Saturday, June 27, 2020

Summit Waves Aquatics Facility, complete with its brand new, 8,000 square foot wave pool, will officially open for business on Saturday, June 27, 2020. To comply with requirements in Jackson County’s Recovery Plan, capacity will be limited and social distancing protocols will be in place. Summit Waves hours of operation will be noon to 7PM daily.

At this time, season passes will only be offered to Lee’s Summit residents, and no non-resident or single visit passes will be available. Season passes can be purchased at Lee’s Summit Parks and Recreation facilities including City Hall and Community Centers.

Due to the shortened season, the price for passes has been reduced to $50 each. Patrons who have already purchased passes will automatically receive a partial refund of the difference.
