The Freedom Park Committee will be hosting a grand opening ceremony Wednesday, June 17th at 6:00 p.m. at Packard Woods in Plymouth, Ind. The main, large play structure, Phase 1 of the all-inclusive playground project, is completed and ready for kids to enjoy. Everyone is invited to attend and celebrate the opening of this wonderful addition to the Marshall County community.
The Freedom Park Committee, in conjunction with the Plymouth Parks Department, has been spearheading an initiative to build an all-inclusive playground in Plymouth, Indiana for the last several years. An all-inclusive playground is designed and created to be accessible to all children and adults of all abilities.
Freedom Park has been broken up into three phases. Phase 1 includes the main, large play structure, a few other pieces of play equipment, plus a Zero-G Chair, which is a high-back swing that allows children who require additional support to swing alongside their peers. A splash pad and sensory garden are part of phases 2 and 3. The Freedom Park committee is continuing to raise funds for phases two and three by selling bricks that will be used to help build the entrance to the playground, and hosting its second annual color run in Centennial Park on August 1, 2015.
“We are beyond excited that the first phase of Freedom Park is complete. Our committee has worked very hard to raise funds over the last three years for a project that we truly feel will benefit the entire community,” said Tony Gamble, Co-chair of the committee.
