Escambia County Parks and Recreation has added several new amenities at two parks in District 3, including a new playground and play features for children of all ages to enjoy.
Improvements include a new playground at the Ebonwood/Oakcrest Community Center and Park, with slides, climbing structures, musical instruments, interactive games and more. The playground is located next to the community center, which hosts the county's Play, Learn, Grow summer camp program and after school programs.
Parks and Recreation also installed a new shade sail and play structure at Lincoln Park, which is located near Lincoln Park Elementary School and features a walking path, basketball court, picnic area, pavilions, and more.
"Providing recreational opportunities for youth in our community is so incredibly important, and I'm excited to make these improvements to Ebonwood and Lincoln Park just in time for children to enjoy all summer long," District 3 Commissioner Lumon May said. "Thank you to our Parks and Recreation staff for always working hard to maintain and improve our parks and playgrounds so children and families have places in their neighborhoods to get outside and play."
The Ebonwood/Oakcrest Community Center and Park is located at 3511 W. Scott St., and Lincoln Park is located at 7865 Aaron Drive. For more information about Escambia County parks and community centers, visit the MyEscambia.com website.
