Playground Ground Cover: Wood chips

 This park has it all in addition to the playground:

• Hiking Trails
• 2 Grass Multi-Purpose Fields
• 5 Horseshoe pits
• 3 Sand Volleyball Courts
• Arnold Jaycees Skate Park
• Half Basketball Court
• Paw Park for dogs
• Restrooms
and 5 pavilions with electrical outlets and BBQ pits at each site, ready for rental.

There are 2 playgrounds here, across the parking lot from each other. This playground is rather small. There are 2 baby swings and one play structure. It has a couple of slides, a rock wall, and some bars and poles. This is best suited for toddlers.

 I didn't go into the restrooms, so I don't know what condition they are in.

Playground Ground Cover: Wood Chips & Poured Rubber

The Chesterfield First Community Athletic Complex, formerly known as Chesterfield Valley Athletic Complex (CVAC), is a premier 176-acre sports and recreation facility in Chesterfield, Missouri, designed to accommodate athletes and families of all abilities. Featuring 21 ball diamonds, including the inclusive Catch 22 Miracle Field and 16 synthetic infields, 10 multi-purpose fields for soccer, flag football, lacrosse, and ultimate frisbee, 6 baseball/softball practice fields, 6 lighted sand volleyball courts, 4 concession buildings, 2 playgrounds, 2 entertainment plazas, and ample parking, the complex is a hub for community sports and events.

There is a large playground located right next to the main parking lot. It doesn't have any swings, but there are several slides - all different sizes- and a jungle gym climbing area. The playground was clean and in good condition. During the day, the playground is pretty empty, but it is probably packed when a sporting event is going on.

There is a second playground on the property, a bit to the West of this first one; it's shown at the end of the post. 

The playground is right behind this restroom and concession building. This is the old playground. The new playground was installed in 2024. 

Modified merry-go-round

The second playground is definitely not as nice as the first one. It's just one play structure, and it has a tunnel, a bubble window, monkey bars, and some slides. It's over by the soccer fields to the west. Next to this playground are the sand volleyball courts if your child enjoys playing in sand.
