Playground ground cover: Rubber Mats and astroturf

The "treetop" playground at Shaw Park is located near the north parking lot. The playground is completely fenced in (with gates to exit the play area) so kids cannot run away. The "treetop" name comes from a treehouse play structure. The playground is designed for all kids to play, with adaptive swings, and ramps up to the play structures. It is in full sun, and it was built in the fall of 2010. There are shade structures over the benches for parents but none over the playground area. The sprayground is on from 9 am to 8 pm during the summer months.

The teeter-totter replaced the musical instruments that used to be here. 














In 2024 they replaced the splash pad with something a little more fun. 





















The sensory garden is beautiful and worth exploring. 




The playground below is located near the south parking lot and the tennis courts. It was installed in 2021. It's a Berliner and it's super fun with lots of play sculptures and geodomes with planar nets.
