Inclusive Playground
The City of Moorhead strives to offer recreational programs and facilities for all ages and abilities, including the Inclusive Playground at Southside Regional Park, 2400 40th Ave South. The Moorhead Parks Advisory Board identified the Inclusive Playground as the number one park project during Strategic Planning in 2019.
The City launched a fundraising campaign with the help of a group of passionate parents to raise awareness of the playground and to turn it into a community focused project. A significant portion of American Rescue Plan Federal Funds were also dedicated to the project.
One of the strategic policies in the Onward Moorhead Comprehensive Plan is to "prioritize equitable access to Moorhead's parks, open spaces, and playfields". Phase II fundraising has been started to complete the inclusive playground by adding a fence around the perimeter that will ensure a safe and secure environment for all visitors.
