Grosbeak Discover Play Area

Introducing the Grosbeak Discovery Play Area, featuring a design inspired by native birds, specifically the blue grosbeak, this play area symbolizes the importance of our river as a habitat stopover. The central feature is a 41 foot tall adventure tower with climbing nets and a covered circular slide. The area will also feature a child-friendly zip line, swings, hillside slides, and stump climbs.
