Not just a playground. A park is more than just the playground. Universal Park is 18 acres of recreational space for individuals of all ages and abilities. From play to fitness. Athletics to picnics.
In 2019 a Tree Inventory and Assessment was completed
Each tree was given a unique ID number to help limit the number of trees that would need to be removed.
Tree trunks that were removed are being saved for future use in the park. Urban wood utilization is a way of finding the best use of the trees that had to be removed.
Provide a space where people of all abilities and ages can play together
Create a park that exemplifies universal inclusion that preserves, protects and enhances the natural landscape of the park
Create a “new normal” for the development of inclusive parks across the country
We hope you’ll join the RampUp movement, becoming a part of the solution that enABLEs everyBODY to play …. TOGETHER!
