Work has begun to replace the playground at Ogden Rise. The City is replacing the existing playground with an updated inclusive playground. Inclusive playgrounds are meant to be engaging, fun spaces where everyone can play regardless of their abilities. These playgrounds challenge the most active children while also providing enclosed areas for quiet and creative play. The project is expected to be completed this fall.

After some wonderful updates last season, George Moss Park is slated to see further enhancements in the not-so-distant future. Ideas being proposed include a Pump Track and Skatepark, with a shaded gathering space as the key features.
