Drewel Park, Eureka






Location: 2 Hill Dr., Eureka, MO 63025

Amenities: Playground, Picnic Shelter/Pavilion, handball court, tennis court, basketball court, sand volleyball courts

Website: http://www.eureka.mo.us/departments/parks-recreation/park-locations-amenities/

Playground ground cover: poured rubber and wood chips

This is a great inclusive playground. It's tucked in a neighborhood subdivision and has many amenities in addition to the playground. The playground itself looks relatively new and is in great condition. There is a baby area and a bigger structure. The baby area has a log that you can climb on, a slide, a steering wheel, and a little rock climber. The bigger structure features 2 slides, ramps, and a circular spider web-looking climber. The entire structure is made to look like a tree house. There are 3 sling swings, 2 baby swings, and 1 adaptive swing. There are also some mushroom stools to sit on and a bunch of benches. The restrooms are clean and has a drinking fountain. The sand volleyball court would be fun to play in as well for little guys.











They have 2 large pavilions next to the playground

Website:  http://arnoldmo.org/government/departments/parks-recreation/parks/ferd-b-lang-park/

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.
