Huntington Beach, Calif.-- Adventure
Playground, an annual summer event
that invites kids to learn how to
saw, hammer, romp in the mud, swing
on a tire and just have good,
old-fashioned fun, is open to youth
ages six to 12 years old.
If your children are bored and you
seek an affordable, unique way to
entertain them on vacation, the
City of Huntington Beach Community
Services sponsors the summer event
to beat all. In the heart of
Huntington Beach where 200,000
people dwell amidst the L.A. sprawl
of over 10 million residents,
there's a place where kids belong.
It's called
Central Park. In
existence for over 30 years, the
park features 350 urban acres of
swings, slides, lakes, bike paths,
Frisbee golf, horse trails, a
library and more!
At this Central Park adventure, kids will hammer,
saw wood, make forts, push
themselves around in the shallow
water on a raft and do all sorts of
climbing, jumping and whatever they
choose. Kids can raft on a small
pond, navigate a rope bridge, use a
cable slide, go down a mud slide and
more. Bring a
spare change of clothing, a plastic
bag to put the wet clothes in and
close-toed shoes for safety.
Parents will not be allowed to tell
the kids, "Don't get dirty." Sorry
mom or dad. The dirt is what this is
about and you must just butt out!
This summer-fun event is held
annually. Adventure Playground runs
mid-June through mid-August.
This experience is suitable for kids
six to twelve years old. It is only
open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday
through Saturday, closed Sunday.
