What’s new at Woodland Park

The sky may be gray, but the new playground equipment at Woodland Park certainly isn’t. The park now features a spinning rope climber and a sensory wave climber.

The new equipment honors Woodland Park’s priority of accessible play. The sensory wave climber has strategically positioned hand grips, making it climbable for children of all abilities. Plus, the playground’s rubber surfacing not only prevents injuries, but its seamless smooth surface is also more easily navigable by wheels and feet alike.

Head to 601 E. High St. to take that rope climber for a spin.
