ADA Compliance at Robert Pfaff Park
The playground at Pfaff Park was originally build in 1989 and is in desperate need of an update.  the Foundation is hoping to rebuild the playground to be fully ADA compliant and accessible to all by the Summer of 2012. Specifically, the old fall material and playground parts will be removed and then replaced with ADA compliant fall material, a play structure and necessary ramps.

Recreation and play time is an essential part of life and directly affects physical, mental, emotional and social well being. An ADA compliant playground would allow for children, both with and without disabilities, to play together. This will also increase community awareness allowing individuals to develop, grow and learn from one another.
Restroom at Forest Glen Park
The restroom at Forest Glen Park was the last restroom installed in a Central Point Park. Now all of the parks over 1 acre in Central Point have a restroom. Project completed in December 2010.
