Hillsdale Park
Parent notes
A farming theme runs through this one, from the tractor-shaped playground to benches built to look like hay bales, on land donated from the family farm that once occupied the site. A small water-wickets feature stands in for a splash pad. One catch worth planning around: it doubles as the playground for the elementary school next door during school hours.
