Asheville Parks & Recreation (APR) invites kids, families, and community members of all ages to celebrate the city’s first all-abilities playground at Murphy-Oakley Community Center on Tuesday, June 25 at 1:30pm.
Open play time will follow a short ceremony with remarks from D. Tyrell McGirt, APR Director. Attendees can also enjoy treats from Annie B’s Homemade Ice Cream courtesy of the City of Asheville!
The new playground boasts a variety of slides, climbing and spinning structures, swings, musical instruments, and designated cognitive play areas to spark imagination and encourage healthy fun for all children. A “serenity spot” is also integrated into the design since children, caregivers, and parents often need a comfortable place to step away – but still be part of the playspace.
New sidewalks make the playground easily accessible for people with wheelchairs or limited mobility and colorful non-slip rubber surfacing softens potential falls. A safety fence surrounding the perimeter creates a fun, vibrant boundary, promoting a feeling of independence that allows kids to safely explore the entire playground with ease.
