The Commons Playground, Chesterfield

Playground Ground Cover: Wood chips

In the summer of 2021, Chesterfield Presbyterian Church (www.chespres.org) purchased the old Gold’s Gym just a half mile east of the church. We dreamed of turning this 37,000-square-foot building and 400 parking spaces on four acres into a gathering place for our community.

We are excited to have a variety of large and small spaces for meetings, events, and sporting activities.

All are welcome at The Commons! Our coffeehouse is open to the public from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Friday. Come and read, hang out, or study in a beautiful place—it's open to everyone and free.

In 2024 they added a beautiful outdoor playground that is free and open to the public, and it's fully enclosed with a fence and gate.
