  • Swing set, Slides, Sandbox for little kids in the Playground
  • Lots of shade
  • A few picnic tables and benches
  • Two change rooms - now converted into space for summer programming (ask to take a peak inside - you'll see some fabulous puppets)
  • Basketball court
  • Bathrooms (open around 7am till around 8pm)
