In 2017, Rowan County Parks and Recreation received a PARTF grant that would allow a complete overhaul of the playground to include adaptive play equipment for visitors of all abilities.

At this time, the old play equipment has been removed and the playground area is closed for renovation.  Soon, the new play equipment will be installed including a fully accessible play fort, swings, slides, inclusive orbit (merry-go-round), a round team swing, buddy benches, and more.
