About

The park includes an all-access playground area with wide ramps, large swings, belt swings, infant swings and benches that sway. Children of all abilities can play side by side on the play equipment. The sprayground is a zero-depth splash pad with fun features that spray and dump water. The shelter has restrooms and picnic tables and can be reserved for groups of thirty or fewer for a fee. Funding for the playground, sprayground, and shelter included donations from the Centerville Kiwanis Club, Centerville Noon Optimist Club, Centerville-Washington Foundation and the State of Ohio NatureWorks grant program.
