The park is open from 6:00 A.M. until 10:00 during the fair weather months.
When does the park close for the season? Like any other park, weather permitting, we won't officially close for the season. However, please note that the restrooms are closed from November to April.
Can you tell me about the accessible features of the park? It would take quite a while to list them all. The park was built with many custom-designed elements to accommodate youngsters with mobility issues, vision or hearing impairments. Here are a few examples: The park is wired with sounds (train whistle, flowing water, etc) that can help a sight impaired child navigate. The large windows in the village houses allow parents to use sign language to communicate with hearing impaired children while they play inside. Broad ramps throughout the park let youngsters in wheelchairs get a loftier view of the world. And, the slides have transfer decks so children in wheelchairs can be helped onto the equipment.
