About the Venue

The McAllen Inclusive Park at Blanca E. Sanchez Elementary was developed for children of all abilities through a partnership involving McAllen ISD, Hidalgo County Precinct 4, Capable Kids Foundation, the City of McAllen, H-E-B and Driscoll partners. Public reporting confirms a three-part play system designed for children with mobility and other challenges, plus ADA-accessible restrooms and expanded parking. Because it sits by a school and youth baseball complex, it works well for local families looking for a community all-abilities playground during posted public access times.
