Upgraded play equipment coming to Castlegate, Merry Oaks, and Southern Oaks

By Kelli Nesbitt, Parks & Recreation Marketing Coordinator

Local kids will soon have more ways to climb, slide, and swing at Castlegate, Merry Oaks, and Southern Oaks parks after the College Station City Council unanimously approved upgrades this week.

The Parks and Recreation Department conducted “This or That” surveys targeting frequent park visitors and residents living near the parks. Participants were presented with two playground design options and selected the design for their park, ensuring the new equipment reflects neighborhood preferences. Each park will also receive new swing sets.

The $546,600 in improvements are expected to begin in late February or early March and be completed in April, weather permitting.
