City of Des Moines Parks and Recreation Department

2024 Playground Build Day

Join Des Moines Parks and Recreation as we team up to bring a new Des Moines play space to life! Creating spaces for kids to play safely is important. Kids develop physical, social, and emotional skills while playing that help them gain confidence, improve coordination, build relationships, and become critical thinkers.
