Just in time for fall children in the Boulevard Lake area are now able to jump, swing, climb and slide on a new playground.
The project began at the end of May, as part of a joint venture between the City of Thunder Bay and the Canadian Tire Jumpstart Charity when the former playground equipment was removed to make way for a modern play space that is bigger, safer, and more accessible.
Amenities include:
- spacious; more running around room for kids of all ages.
- rubber base; more environmentally friendly and less likely to have to dump shoes out before going home.
- better accessibility; the park has many features for those with mobility/accessibility restrictions.
- fitness area; geared toward adults, but open for anyone to use it. Signage is posted on how to do certain exercises on the permanent equipment.
- low to the ground activities; lots of walk/roll up activity spaces for park-goers to spin wheels, drum, and music making.
