The new playground features a custom log climber with crows nest, a wood playhouse, sand play area, crazy cups, and a supernova. The project also included new seating and a new drinking fountain.
Past updates
Summer and fall 2016
We held an open house on December 6 for you to view the preliminary design plans for the playground. We asked for your feedback at the event and in an online questionnaire (December 6 to January 7, 2017). A total of 210 respondents completed the questionnaire.
The consultation summary provides an overview of feedback from community members on their preferred options and what they'd like to see in the new playground. Thank you to everyone who provided feedback!

Through the initial public outreach process, Stratford Hall External web site, opens in new tab, an independent school located across from the park, offered to raise the money for a new playground.
Over the summer and fall, the school has been reaching out to the students and community, with the goal to raise $250,000 for a new public playground.
Spring 2016
The Park Board proposed to remove the east playground due to its age and condition, and safety concerns. We asked you to provide feedback about potential options for the site in an online questionnaire, which ran from March 15 to April 10, 2016.
The results indicated that the majority of respondents would like to see a new playground replace the structure if it is removed.
