Playground Ground Cover: Wood chips

Features include tennis courts, a playground, and a basketball hoop. Furthermore a section of the Great Rivers Greenway with parking available. 

This tiny park would be good for toddlers because it's so small. There is one of those scoops that kids can manipulate to pick up mulch. Kids love those things! 






The playground has a modified expression swing, 2 tires to climb on, a balance beam, a webbed climber, and some steps.
