Mary Ridge Park, St. Ann

Playground Ground Cover: Wood Chips

This park is 3 acres, and has 1 ball diamond, 1 BBQ Grill, 1 comfort station, 1 horseshoe pit, 1 pavilion, and a nice playground.

I was impressed with almost all of St. Ann's playgrounds. They may not be the latest and greatest equipment, but they're large and there's a ton of things to do on them. Most of the playgrounds could use more wood chips, but besides that they're in good condition.  This park is quiet and peaceful and would be a good place for a gathering.

Restrooms, pavilion, and BBQ pit are all close and in good shape.

There are 3 sling swings and 2 baby swings.

The playground is down the hill.

It's just one huge structure. It has a bouncy step, monkey bars, climbing panels, multiple different slides, bridge, tunnels, pretend storefront, and lots of bars and poles.

Playground Ground Cover: Wood Chips

This playground is awesome.  It could use some more wood chips but besides that it's great. The structure is very large and tall so it is best suited for kids over 5. There is a pavilion and restrooms right next to it.

There are 3 different slides, a bridge, a small tunnel, pretend storefronts, bubble window, modified rock wall, and tons of poles and bars.

Playground Ground Cover: Poured Rubber

This playground is amazing! It has been newly renovated and has some very neat features. My kids loved the zipline! It's a full body one, not like the usual ones you hang from. And there is a boat that rocks also. The entire playground is all inclusive for all abilities too! It was very clean and welcoming. I just wish they had restrooms.

There is an adaptive swing, a baby swing, and 2 sling swings. 

The play structure for little guys has an interesting modified rock wall, a couple slides, and a treasure tumbler. There is also a pretend storefront, and a speaker system.

There is also a tunnel and some drums. 

The larger play structure has ramps, slides, the rocking boat, drums, activity window, steering wheel,
musical board, and tons of bars and poles.
