About the Venue

Lions Park in Mission is one of the region's strongest outdoor inclusive playgrounds for variety. Recent local reporting describes the redesigned park as all-inclusive and accessible, with an accessible zipline, wheelchair swings, musical play with chimes and drums, a toddler bike training area, a 25-foot tower slide, splash pad access, and signage in English, Spanish, Braille, and American Sign Language. This is a better fit for families who want a bigger, newer park experience with multiple activity types rather than a quick neighborhood stop.
