Because Playgrounds Should be for Everyone
Did you know that just because a playground meets Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards, doesn't mean it's accessible? For children like Karter most playgrounds don't have any ways to include him in play. Woodchips and other materials that aren't smooth prevent him from even accessing the playground, let alone attempting to engage in any type of play. It leaves kids like Karter sitting on the sidelines.
When things are designed to beyond the bare minimum, and designed with EVERYONE in mind, we ALL benefit!
This park features smooth surfaces, wheelchair accessibility throughout the entire park (including the main structure), quiet areas (for kids with sensory needs), a variety of materials (including sand area) for sensory exploration, musical instruments, adaptive zipline, a variety of swings, and obstacle course equipment aimed at ages 13 and older.
There is truly something for everyone here!
