About the Park
The Rotary Club of Temple South Accessible Playground is Temple’s first
fully-accessible playground. The playground is located in Lions Park
and is designed to serve children of all ages who have mental or
physical disabilities. This progressive new playground has been made
possible by the generous donations of several local groups and service
organizations.
The major
components of the playground include: three large interconnected decks
with play events attached, swings, a whirl, a see-saw, an elevated
sandbox, a freestanding hammock, a race car spring rider, and several
other play events all designed with accessibility and inclusion in mind.
The playground also features a combination of engineered wood fiber and
recycled, poured-in-place surfacing for accessibility and fall
protection.
