T. T. Minor Playground Play Area Renovation
Updated: August 9, 2024
Summer 2024
We are experiencing a delay due to some missing parts for the play equipment that were flagged during the final inspections. The components will be delivered in mid-August and we will reopen the playground as soon as the outstanding items are fixed. We apologize for the delay and thank you so much for your patience as we are wrapping up the construction.
Please follow this site for updates on the re-opening and ribbon-cutting celebration!
We had a great success on Sunday, June 23 hosting the Volunteer Service Day for the Greater and Greener Conference. We had approximately 50 conference attendees who helped build the playground lead by Seattle Parks and Recreation (SPR) and Play Creation. The two main structures of the play equipment was donated by Landscape Structures and Play Creation.
