Help create a vibrant space with dynamic play elements that celebrate the park and community at Kelso Beach at Nawash Park!
The Kelso Beach at Nawash Park Playground Replacement and Splashpad Revitalization project will replace the aging playground and enhance the splash pad toward accessible, inclusive play, for residents and visitors of all ages and abilities.
The existing splash pad already supports integration, independence, and inclusion for people of all ages and abilities, and this project will build on that foundation by renewing key amenities in a way that supports broader participation in outdoor recreation. The site benefits from existing washroom/change room facilities, trails, parking, and transit access, helping reduce physical and transportation barriers for users and caregivers.
The City has partnered with the Scenic City Order of Good Cheer on this project. Both partners are contributing $250,000 to the project.
Thank you to everyone who contributed through the survey or in-person Open House to provide feedback on concept designs.
Please see the Design Display Boards under 'Draft Design Concepts' on this page to see what was shared at this Open House.
Designs are currently being updated to reflect feedback provided by community users.
Stay tuned for final playground and splash pad designs to be shared. Construction will start later this Fall.
