Over 4,100 volunteers, supervised by playground construction professionals from Leathers & Associates, came together to build Utah County’s first all-abilities playgrounds in 6.5 days in the Fall of 2016.

Plus, the bathroom was FILTHY when we were there, and the sink was out of...

It's cool that we have fence posts with our son's names on them. The playground is fun for all ages and they have benches for parents.
