Join us for the official opening and celebration of the 15 and the Mahomies Playground!
The first phase of improvements to help transform Martin Luther King Jr. Square Park will provide civil rights education and a unique, safe place for children of all abilities to play together. The playground pieces that have been selected encourage accessibility and inclusiveness for children with all physical and mental abilities and are also durable for longevity and easy to maintain. The destination playground features a large, custom net play structure, multiple types of swings, musical marimba, a small shade structure, a wheelchair accessible spinner and a synthetic turf mound with climbing features and a wide concrete hill slide.
