The playground at Jennerjohn Park is the biggest, and probably most popular, park playground here in Greenville. There are three different playground areas to choose from. A sand area is located furthest north and is about 1,800 square feet in size. It includes a digger and a metal fire truck for “driving” and climbing.
The sand area and fire truck are originals to the playground but, in 2005 a community build replaced one single playground with the two that are currently there. One of the playground areas 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. That 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, the Heritage Fountain and part of the trail system. A covered pavilion offers picnic tables, shade and restrooms. You’ll even find activities here in the winter months when we have our sledding hill, ice rink and ski trial!
