Project Recap:?
The Stranahan PTA has raised nearly $600k for an Inclusive & Accessible Community Playground. The playground will be the first of its kind in the Sylvania community, offering a space for children of all abilities a place to play alongside one another. Design elements provide the perfect mix of equipment to entertain the thrill seeker, sensory seeker and everyone in between. Most notably, the playground will remove barriers to play via ramping, adaptive equipment and 8,000 square feet of accessible surfacing.
Next Steps:
