On the Boards: Sunflower Park

Our initial concept for Phase One of Sunflower Park:  Visitors enter the park through a monumental gateway directly accessing the parking lot, which will be shared with a future Community Resource Center. Crushed granite trails meander through the park, allowing patrons to either access park amenities or use them as a part of their fitness workout.  The trails will change grades, providing a moderate challenge to a fitness program, yet complying with state and national accessibility standards.  An existing berm on three sides of the park perimeter will be set five feet above grade, with all-weather surface to provide an option for those wishing for a more challenging workout.  

A children's playground has been placed in a central location, for convenience and for supervision.  A Wilderness Hideout Challenger System, which is a nature-themed playground features wood components, a Climber and Tree Toppers; a Challenger System that features two slides, the Horizontal Loop Ladder for upper-body fitness, and a Transfer Station for wheelchair accessibility.
