Excavation work has been completed. Not all the playground elements are in place, but you are still welcome to play. A grand opening celebration will be on Sunday, November 9, at 1 pm once all the final touches are in place.
What is a nature play space?
Nature play spaces/playgrounds are a fast-growing movement that encourages natural play on structures designed around natural elements (e.g., boulders, stumps, logs) in an outdoor environment, an alternative to the plastic, metal, manufactured playgrounds we more often see today. Nature playspaces promote unstructured play that stimulates creativity and imagination, enhances sensory experiences, facilitates social interaction, fosters a connection with nature, and reduces stress and anxiety.
Some elements that will be included in the play space include:
entrance arbor
boat
hopscotch
climbing logs
balancing logs
picnic tables
mud kitchen
shelter
