What is Discovery Park?
An Awesome Unstructured Playground Adventure!
Children are encouraged to play and build, imagine and create, explore and discover,
challenge themselves and just be free!
No one will tell them what to do or how to do it. No one will tell them who to play with or how to work in a team.
Trust your kids, empower them, and give them a safe space to figure things out on their own.
Parents are allowed in all sections,
but are encouraged to let their children play freely, discover, problem-solve and create on his/her own.
You’ll find age-related areas from Tad-Pole Hole for the toddlers to the Maze and
Test Track for the older kids. There are areas for water/ mud fun, musical play, quiet spots, crazy swings
and more.
Plenty of seating is available for adults to read, nap, watch or visit with other parents.

Mission Statement
Remember as a kid when you ran wild with a pack of friends
on a summer day, without a care in the world? You did what you wanted. You played.
You challenged each other. You took risks. All with minimal parental supervision.
Many kids these days have very limited access to free play.
Free, unstructured play is vital for children and offers an antidote to the hurried lifestyles, digital
distractions and overprotective parents that can leave children few opportunities to really just be kids.
The goal of Discovery Park is to provide a safe learning environment that offers opportunities for
children to learn cooperation, develop critical thinking and creativity, meet physical challenges and
gain self confidence.
Our promise... ...to create many happy childhood memories by bringing “adventure” back into play!
