Whitemarsh Township Parks and Recreation recently held a ceremonial ribbon cutting to celebrate the opening of the Magical Miles Park Playground and basketball-pickleball courts.
The Magical Miles Park Playground improvement plan called for an inclusive and accessible new playground area and a solar cell phone charging station. Work included pedestrian walkways, playground equipment with required safety surfacing, ADA access, landscaping, project sign, benches, and other site improvements.
The basketball court renovation included surfacing and painting of the courts to include pickleball lines for multi-use courts. The project also included stormwater management, two accessible entrances, bleachers, trash receptacles, new light poles, and energy-efficient LED lights.
Whitemarsh Township Parks and Recreation was honored to have the Montgomery County Down Syndrome Interest Group (MCDSIG) take part in the ribbon cutting. The Whitemarsh Township Police Department, surrounding community police departments and K-9 units, Barren Hill Fire Company, Spring Mill Fire Company, and Whitemarsh Community Ambulance also joined the celebration.
