Churchill Park’s Rocket Ship Playground is a hit!

The level of excitement your kids will feel when they see this amazing park space is off the charts! The massive rocket ship is primed for astronaut imaginary play while testing their bravery and climbing skills. This play structure is over three stories tall!
