Okotoks playgrounds reopen with fresh upgrades and new play equipment

The town's playground upgrades are a "step" in the right direction for Okotoks families.

The Town of Okotoks has completed upgrades at the Ardiel and Kinsmen Park playgrounds, making them officially open for play as of August 28.

The refreshed playgrounds feature new playground structures, wood-chip surfacing, and landing pads under the existing swings.

Community members were asked for input on the refreshed playground designs, with the Ardiel Park playground collecting feedback in April and the Kinsmen Park playground collecting feedback in April and May.

The Ardiel Park playground, built in 1999, features a variety of play equipment for children aged two to five and five to 12, including a duo spinner, stainless steel straight chute slide, and trillium climber.

The Kinsmen Park playground, built in 2007, includes a variety of similar features, such as a tic-tac-toe panel, duo spinner, and two stainless steel chute slides.

The town thanked residents for their patience while improvements were made and encouraged families to enjoy the refreshed spaces for climbing, swinging, sliding, and making memories.
