Carpenter Recreation Center
Thornton, CO USA
Playground Overview
When this recreation center in Thornton, Colorado, was renovated, they asked for innovation and inclusivity. With multiple playstructures—an Evos® playsystem, a Weevos® playsystem and a PlayBooster® playstructure—kids of all ages and abilities will enjoy an imaginative play area that invites endless activity. Along with extensive ramping, a truly inclusive experience is achieved with the addition of Freestanding elements including the Sway Fun® Glider, the Sensory Play Center®, the Cozy Dome® and more. Several CoolToppers® shade structures provide welcome relief from the sun’s rays.

Weevos®
Ages 2 to 5 Years
The Weevos® playground structure is designed for growth and development in 2- to 5-year-olds in six key areas: physical, balance, cognitive, sensory/motor, emotional/social and language.
