Project Overview

This project will replace the existing playground equipment and park furnishings that are 20 years old and have reached the end of service life.  The new equipment will fit within the existing footprint and have age-appropriate features for the two primary age groups: 2- to 5-year-old and 5- to 12-year-old youth. Based on community feedback, the new equipment will feature shade sails, skylight panels, swings, various climbing activities, and a big slide.
