Kirkland has taken down the fencing around the new all-abilities playground at Juanita Beach Park.
It’s part of a larger renovation to the park on the shores of Lake Washington.
The playground is located between a new bathhouse and a new picnic pavilion and has views of the beach and lake. The playground has synthetic turf and all-abilities play elements. It is wheelchair accessible and helps to develop physical, cognitive, sensory and social skills.
The park’s existing playground equipment, which was still in good condition, will be relocated to Windsor Vista Park.
Kirkland reminds people that parks are open with the following COVID safety guidelines:
- Social gatherings limited to five or fewer people.
- Social distance of 6 feet required if not in the same household.
- Face covering must be worn at all times (except by children 2 and younger).
