The park is named in honor of Jessica Lynne Clinton, who passed away suddenly in 2003 of an undiagnosed heart condition.
The new playground is designed to accommodate children of all abilities, including those in wheelchairs or with other mobility concerns. For children ages 5-12, there are meandering climbing structures and wild slides. Children ages 2-5 will find a colorful geometric structure encouraging agile and exploratory activities.
On the ground level, there are gently swaying basket swings, seats and hangout pods that offer points for socializing and relaxing. A xylophone provides opportunities for sensory play, and there is a large sky-surfer, net and crawl-through tube. Large signs of positive affirmations and sign language welcome children and their families to the one-of-a-kind playground.
There also are hearts throughout the soft play surface, similar to the hearts on the road in front of the park, which honor Jessica’s memory and promote the powerful message of inclusion and health.
