Marquis Playground
The Marquis Playground is home to the first Yalp Memo in Western Canada! What is a Yalp Memo you ask? (That was the question I had when I first heard about it!) It’s a series of seven pillars set in a playfield. LED lights and audio offer game choices and instruction and players get to run around the various posts to complete tasks. There is everything from speed games to math questions!
The girls LOVED it, and truth be told, I did too! But wait – there’s more! This playground is also home to a musical merry-go-round! It plays music and lights up when it is turning, making it truly a kid-powered machine!
Marquis playground has a cute toddler structure with a really fun twisting board. (Think the ab twister but with ropes to hang onto!) The big kid park is a unique design with a great tower. Accessories at this park include a music/panel board, monkey bar variations, and swings (2 standard, 1 accessible and 1 parent/baby tandem swing). There are benches and an old grain silo is onsite as a picnic shelter!
