The latest amenity expansion at Nocatee is inspiring the next generation of construction professionals on the First Coast.

The PARC Group, developers of Nocatee, partnered with the [Florida First Coast Chapter of the Associated Builders and Contractors](http://www.abcfirstcoast.com/) (ABC), [Northeast Florida Builders Association](https://secure.nefba.com/) (NEFBA), and [Carlton Construction](https://carltonconstruction.net/) to host the event. ABC volunteers reached out to area schools with career and technical programs related to construction, and 90 students from nine schools attended.

 

> **“The Nocatee Spray Park offers students a truly unique opportunity to witness a wide range of construction work all in one place,” said Mo Rudolph, Director of Planning and Development at The PARC Group. “This is a case study in state-of-the-art, complex construction. We’re building one structure made entirely of concrete block, one made from timber, and one from steel — not to mention the tallest water slide tower in Northeast Florida.”**

 

High school students from Duval, Clay, Putnam and St. Johns counties got a behind-the-scenes look at the ongoing development of the new Nocatee Spray Park at one of the nation's best-selling communities. 

Students toured various aspects of the active construction site, including the:

- Custom-designed band shell and stage
- Commercial food service building
- 20,000-component spray playground
- Office and restroom buildings

Several contractors working on the job — many of whom graduated from the NEFBA apprenticeship program and local high schools themselves — spoke to students about the career opportunities in the construction industry. They also heard from the construction manager and the project’s superintendent.

 

The [Nocatee Spray Park](https://blog.nocatee.com/nocatee-unveils-renderings-for-newest-water-park) is the first and only of its kind in the region. The four-story, above-ground, interactive spray playground will serve as the centerpiece of the latest major amenity expansion at Nocatee.

 

The [Nocatee Spray Park](https://www.nocatee.com/lifestyle/spray-water-park/) will be located between the[ Nocatee Community Park](https://www.nocatee.com/lifestyle/community-park/) and [Nocatee Swim Club](https://nocatee.hs-sites.com/lifestyle/nocatee-swim-club/), on the eastern side of Crosswater Parkway. It is slated to open within the next few months.
