Playground ground cover:  Poured Rubber

There are 3 playgrounds at Vago Park. Two are right after you enter the park - one near the parking lot and one near the pickleball court. The playground near the street is in the sun, but there is some shade on the one by the pickleball court.  Between these two playgrounds is a cement frog statue and a horseshoe pit.



This toddler playground is designed for children aged 2-5 and was installed in early 2023. It has rubber flooring, musical instruments, a balance board, slides, and lots of climbing equipment. 































The splash pad was installed in 2014 and is on from Memorial Day to Labor Day, like most of the splash pads in town. It is located between the 2 playgrounds.








They replaced the sand volleyball court with a pickleball court and a permanent cornhole game.




The first playground you come upon when entering the park was replaced in mid-2025. The play structure is huge and has bubble windows, slides, shade umbrellas, drums, a roller slide, boulders, tons of manipulative boards, an abacus, a rock wall, and musical instruments. 









There is an ADA swing and 5 sling swings.

The third playground is at the very back of the park, just follow the road until it ends.  This part of the park also has a fitness trail and picnic shelter.


This playground has a modified merry-go-round, an awesome zip line, and several climbing walls.

Yay for rolley slides! This playground is amazing!
