Velda City Park, Velda City

Playground Ground Cover: Rubber Mats

Well, this playground clearly needs help. It's old and neglected. It's enclosed by a fence with barbed wire and I'm not sure what the purpose of that is.



 There was trash everywhere and the benches were broken. 


There is one play structure and it has slides, a tunnel, maze boards, a tic-tac-toe board, and various bars and poles. 



 There are supposed to be 4 sling swings but they are all broken except 1. 


 There are 2 rocking vehicles for toddlers




 There is a pavilion but no restrooms
