Course Detail:

The function of a playground is much more than play, it’s a place where life’s lessons are learned and infinite possibilities explored. Every great playground reflects a sense of balance. Community verses individual needs. Challenge with a respect for safety. Community leaders are concerned with cost. Kids want fun! It’s a matter of point-of-view. Participants in this course will learn the basics of creating great playgrounds on the backdrop of practical realities.

This course will also include information about Splashpads.
