About the Venue

K.A.S.H. Playground in Mead Park was built as a community project to create a public playground where children of many abilities can play together. Official city materials note the poured rubber surface and wheelchair-accessible design, while area tourism materials describe slides, swings, climbing features, sand play, and accessible swings. It works well for mixed-age outings and families who want a destination playground with a more intentionally inclusive setup than a standard neighborhood park.
