THE ALL-INCLUSIVE PLAYGROUND
The dairy-themed playground will be located at City Park and include unique swing sets for those using a mobility device as well as slides, climbing pieces, a seesaw and other sensory-rich devices.
“The total cost for this project is $400,000 which includes demolition, necessary excavation, all the play features and pour-in-place surface which is ideal for any form of mobility device to maneuver easily,” Kelli Votypka, director of parks and leisure services, told Beneath the Surface News.
If you would like to make a donation to the project, contact Votypka at 254-918-1216 or email kvotypka@stephenvilletx.gov.
