Playground Design Revealed

We are extremely excited to provide the most recent designs for the playground. There is a senior area for bigger kids and a junior area that will incorporate the existing structure for the smaller kids. We are currently working with Wendy Graham, a landscape architect, to work the new play structure in with existing park elements and maximize the play area. As we work through the design process, the layout of the playground structures as pictured in the designs below may change slightly. We are determined now more than ever to reach our fundraising goal so that the kids get what they voted for!
