The grand opening of a new playground at Redwood Park, 17900 20 Ave., will be held rain or shine tomorrow (Saturday) from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
As the first fully accessible playground in the South Surrey area, the layout was developed to accommodate the mature trees in the area and work with the natural flow of the land, according to a city news release.
The area consists of numerous “play pods,” which are mini playgrounds that provide different types of play.
Several elevated and at-grade play structures are also offered to promote inclusion and creative play.
Surface materials used include recycled B.C. rubber, engineered wood fibre and washed river sand.
The playground is a partnership between the City of Surrey, Province of B.C. and Rick Hansen Foundation’s Lets Play Grant, The Rotary Club of White Rock-Peace Arch and Tire Stewardship of B.C.
