- An accessible poured-in-place rubber surface
- A large play structure with umbrella shade coverage that incorporates a climbing/sliding/balancing component
- Accessible ground features, including an OmniSpin Spinner, a dome climber, and two outdoor musical instruments
- A large bay of swings with a variety of swing styles, including traditional swings, a baby swing, an accessible bucket swing, and a baby/adult face-to-face swing
- A panel play structure focused on developmentally appropriate sensory play for our early childhood population
