About the Venue

Tom Brown Park Playground is the clearest officially documented accessible playground in the Tallahassee / Big Bend region. The City of Tallahassee specifically identifies this playground on its accessibility page as having rubberized chips and adapted swings, making it a useful option for families seeking a more inclusive outdoor play stop. Because it sits inside nearly 300 acres of parkland with trails, sports areas, open space, and parking, it also works well for mixed-interest family outings where one child wants playground time and others want room to roam.
