At 100th and Central Park West, the sprinklers are such a hit that moms, kids, teachers, and babysitters come from as far as 196th street! A group from a summer school in the Bronx came to cool off. Another mom brings her kids from the East Side.
"I live at 33rd Street... too far!" She laughingly said.
The adults and children alike enjoy the water.
"I put my feet in and cool down... love it!" One parent said.
