Playgrounds
Younger children will be drawn into a world of make believe with colorful
castles, trains and miniature villages. Older children will be challenged
to active play, exploring tunnels and climbing towers.
Concord's 14 public playgrounds have been renovated since 1994 with state-of-the-art playground equipment. All playgrounds have been inspected to ensure compliance with the latest safety standards and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) so that children of all ages and abilities will be able to enjoy the experience.
