The Playground at Hager Park
The large Age of Discovery playground is a wooden structure. Kids playing here and its dozens of hiding spaces.
Due to its large size, it can be difficult for parents to see their kids. The playground surface is sand. There are a couple of accessible swings, but they are also on the sand.
This play area is in full sun with very little shade.
There is a secondary, smaller playground that is almost fully shaded. It was swings, a tall slide, merry-go-round, and teeter-totter all on grass.
There is also a zipline on this playground over grass.
