While enjoying Woodland Park recently, you may have noticed the old play structure has been removed. On June 1, the Flathead Marines generously volunteered to remove the large Woodland Park playground to make way for the installation of two new playgrounds. Park Crews have begun installation of a new 2-5 year old playground that will be situated closest to the bathrooms. This smaller playground received a 50% grant applied for by Kalispell Parks and Recreation Department to help pay for the structure. A concrete contractor will also begin installation of a perimeter sidewalk with access points to each of the new playgrounds. The 5-12 year old playground will be installed to the east of the pavilion after the smaller playground is finished. Look for this work to be completed by late summer.
