Playground ground cover: Poured rubber

Located across the street from Suson Park, the Kennedy Recreation Complex features a seasonal ice rink, seasonal rental large-space arena, meeting rooms, and offers a wide variety of programs. 

Right in front of the complex is a small playground that includes monkey bars, slides, and a baby swing set intended for children 3 -5 years of age.
















The pool is a 50-meter Olympic-sized pool. It's rather plain as it's just a rectangle with no frills but it does have a small baby pool.  Admission is CHEAP at $4/person (4-12), $5/person (13-64), and kids 3 and under are free with a paying adult. 


The overhead map shows the huge pool and the small baby pool at the upper left.
