The Howard County Department of Recreation & Parks is planning to replace all of the equipment, the surface, and the bridge in our neighborhood playground. The old surface is buckling from tree roots growing underneath, and some equipment is cracked and worn out. When the design for the new playground is finalized by the county, it will be posted on this website.
Funding for the project will become available on July 1st. It will take 3 – 4 weeks for the equipment to be delivered, then another 3 – 4 weeks for installation, so the county is estimating completion in early September. In the meantime, the smaller piece of equipment and one swing set have been determined safe for use and have been re-opened.
