Community Parks
At Parkscapes, our mantra is Building Community Through Play.
We are in experienced working with Park & Recreation professionals and bringing quality play value to our communities.
Enhance Your Community
Now more than ever Parks are a central part of our communities. Families and friends are getting outdoors more than ever before as it presents a safe place to gather with those we care about. In many of our communities we have seen park traffic double since the onset of COVID-19 and social distancing. Investing in the outdoors is a way to support our communities today and build a healthy community for tomorrow.
Make Your Park a Destination
Successful parks capture the heartbeat of a community. A park can become a community destination due to variety of features: the amazing sports fields, that fantastic picnic shelter, or the out-of-this-world play feature that the kids are always asking about. Great amenities give parkgoers a purpose to get outdoors. Whatever the feature, Parkscapes can help plan, design, and install the perfect amenity to keep the community coming back time and time again.
Encourage Imagination
Play helps children learn about and engage with the world around them. They make sense of things by experimenting, discovering and achieving through play. A playground is a landscape designed specifically to encourage play, and when you open up playground space and allow children to explore on their own in a safe environment they are able to make connections and build confidence.
Support Healthy Activity
A healthy lifestyle starts with making physical activity and exercise a normal part of your routine, and there's no better time to develop these skills than in a child's formative years. Playground equipment for parks offers kids the chance to exercise and get fresh air while having fun. Kids of all ages can also build their social skills, learning how to interact with others, sharing, and forming friendships.
Play Value
Parkscapes has unique designs and equipment ideas to make your playground a destination that helps your community grow. We can help guide the design process with anything from selecting the best value piece from a quarterly Sale or design a completely unique custom feature.
Safety Surfacing
Need help deciding on what type of surfacing to utilize under your playground? Or maybe you want to convert an existing playground's surfacing from loose fill to unitary. At Parkscapes we are the experts in safety surfacing and can help you understand the options, benefits, and budget expectations to ensure you achieve the perfect solution for your play area:
Site Furnishings
Additional site amenities can help provide the finishing touch that makes a playground complete. Adding benches, tables, and trash receptacles can make a park more comfortable for users and provide additional social opportunities for kids:
Shelter + Shade
Shade provides valuable cover for any outdoor area – playgrounds, picnic areas, covered sports, fields and more. Shelters provide a cool and comfortable area that help provide a comfortable area to remain outdoors during inclimate weather and create a central gathering place for groups outdoors.
We help our customers find the funding they need.
We work with communities and organizations at every budget level. If you’re looking for a fundraising partner or grant program, we can help! Contact us to learn about our Ultimate List of Playground Grants and Fund Raisers.
How we support you during the Planning and Design Phase
Evaluate + Design
From park benches to splash pads and everything in between, we represent the highest quality manufacturers in outdoor park amenities.
- Site Visits - The first step of almost any project is arranging a site visit with our local Parks Consultants. During our first meeting we'll discuss the project goals, understand any site specific conditions, and develop a scope of work to get us started on putting together designs and budget estimates.
- CAD + Renderings - After our initial site visit we'll take our understanding of your site and work with our in-house Designer to develop detailed CAD drawings and 3D renderings of initial concepts.
- Fundraising Support - Are you looking to raise money for a project? At Parkscapes we keep up to date on the pulse of national and local funding opportunities to help supplement your project budgets.
- And It's All Free! - Being a resource for park planning is a service we take pride in so much so that all of our front end planning efforts are a no-cost service that we provide to help make your project a success. It's as easy as giving us a call or e-mail to get started!

If you have a site work need associated with your park project let us know and we can help manage that portion of the project. Even available through our many Cooperative Purchasing Contracts!
- On-Site Supervision - It's always great to get the community involved in a project, and if that's your goal we can help provide an experienced on-site Supervisor for the duration of a weekend volunteer build.
