Cedar Playground Temporary Closure 🚧

Cedar Playground will be closed from October 26 through November 23 as the City replaces the playground’s poured-in-place safety surfacing.

The existing surface has been patched over the past several years and is ready for full replacement to help maintain a safer play environment for children.

The project is expected to take approximately four weeks. Thank you for your patience as we make this improvement to our community’s playgrounds!
