Facilities

After receiving input from the public, in August 2024, the City constructed a new playground at Blueberry Children's Park. The new play equipment includes features that: encourage multi-generational play; are ADA inclusive and intentionally break down physical and social barriers to play; a playful theme that enhances the visual appeal of the park; and advanced climbing challenges and motion activities that appeal to older children who seek a more adventurous play experience. Surfacing improvements such as the use of ADA approved rubberized surfacing are also part of the playground design. The overall footprint of the play area is approximately 50% larger than the previous play area at the park. 

The project was funded by Monroe City Council-approved capital improvement funds as well as a $100,000 Snohomish County capital funding grant award.
