Additional Plans for Inclusive Playground Project

The Town of Greece announced that they will complete Phases 1 and 2 of an inclusive playground project, which was announced earlier this year. In February, the Town of Greece welcomed partner, Endless Highway Inc., when the non-profit announced they would be funding the We-Go Round, an inclusive playground piece designed for wheelchair users. 

Building off of that enthusiasm, Supervisor Reilich has committed the efforts of his team to install five more pieces of equipment, along with surfacing and shade systems to the project. 

“We are excited to bring not one but two never before seen playground pieces to our area. The We-Go-Round is a covered merry-go round type piece and will be supported by Endless Highway Inc. The We-Go Swing will be our areas first inclusive swing designed for those in wheelchairs and will be supported by the Town of Greece. The We-Go-Swing allows children and adults in wheelchairs to swing together with friends and family. I believe inclusion and inclusive play should be at the forefront of our community. The ability for children of all ages and backgrounds to play together in a safe environment with their friends and family is important now, more than ever,” Supervisor Reilich said.

A June 2021 opening is expected.
