This playground was opened in mid-2024.  The Gateway Region Y partnered with Cardinals Care, Boniface Foundation, and Miracle League for the construction of the Y Adaptive Sports Complex on the campus of the South County YMCA. The complex features a barrier-free dugout, synthetic turf field, accessible field & walking track, and an accessible sensory-rich playground. They also have a spectator pavilion and concession stand.  This playground is open to the public, I called to verify and anyone can use it. There's no lock, it's just a standard chain link fence and gate.  The only caveat is that the public can't use the playground when the YMCA Campers are using it, they will ask you to leave to protect the kids. 

The entire playground is enclosed with a fence and a gate. It's very sunny with not much shade. I didn't see any restrooms, I don't know if the Y would let you in to use theirs but it's close to Tesson Ferry if you needed to find a restroom. 

Musical instrument area

Rolley slides are so fun! 

I love these adaptive merry-go-rounds

The play structure has ramps, maze/activity boards, slides, and lots of things to climb on. 

They have a baby swing, an adaptive swing, and 2 sling swings.
