Cobbs Creek Nature Playground Ribbon Cutting

On May 31, Rebuild Philadelphia joined Councilmember Jamie Gauthier, Speaker of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives Rep. Joanna McClinton, Philadelphia Parks & Recreation, and community members to cut the ribbon on the brand new, $1.6M nature playground in Cobbs Creek.
This playground is part of over $25,000,000 being invested by Rebuild the Cobbs Creek section of Philadelphia.
The improvements at Cobbs Creek include:
New nature-themed, solid wood, play equipment including swings, climbing, colorful play mounds, and water misters to foster imaginative play.
Safety surfaces
Water fountain
Newly planted trees
On-site seating (made from refurbished tree stumps and logs)
Lawn area
Concrete walking paths
Updated signage and trash receptacles
Pedestrian lighting and security cameras
Puzzle walls and textured turtle play equipment
Interactive panels at low eyesight for children and a literacy wall
We are so happy that the kiddos can enjoy a new playground for the summer
