The playground at Jennerjohn Park is our biggest, and probably most popular, playground here in Greenville. There are three different play areas located within the playground area of the park. A sand area is located furthest north and is about 1800 square feet in size. It includes two diggers, one for standing and one for sitting, and a metal fire truck for “driving” and climbing. The sand area and fire truck are original, but a community build in 2005 replaced one playground with the two that are currently there. One play area is designed for children ages 2-5 and is approximately 3000 square feet in size. It includes equipment to slide, climb, ride, and swing. The other is designed for ages 5-12 and offers much of the same play opportunities but on a higher skill level. This area is approximately 5000 square feet in size.
Other activities to enjoy while playing at the park include a ball diamond, open play space, tennis courts, and part of the trail system. While the restrooms and fountain are only available during the summer, you will find a sledding hill and ice rink during the colder, snowier, months!
