Â
The new J. Lewis Hall Sr. Woodville Park Playground features a nature-based theme with a large tree trunk representing a tree house to promote outdoor play and exploration. The County playground focuses on kids ages two through 12 by including both high slides and small ground-level tree trunks for climbing. The playground is fully ADA-accessible with an ADA transfer station for wheelchairs and other mobility devices, an inclusive swing, and several ground-level play features.
Â
In addition to the replacement of the playground, other County park amenities have been enhanced to enrich the facility. Improvements include restroom renovations, new fencing, a resurfaced parking lot, and an updated scoreboard for the softball/baseball field. The new features enhance the park’s safety and usability.
At the ribbon-cutting event, County Parks and Recreation staff will give a short presentation about the playground's special features and updates. Following the presentation, children in attendance will be encouraged to use the new playground for the very first time!
