Pirnie Inclusive Playground

Ryder Park - Grand Island, Nebraska

In the spring of 2024, the city of Grand Island, Nebraska, opened the exciting new Pirnie Inclusive Playground at Ryder Park. The 27,000-square-foot, fully accessible playspace is the first of its kind in the city. It incorporates a wide variety of equipment — provided through Creative Sites, Burke’s exclusive representative partner in Nebraska and Western Iowa— intended to appeal to children of all ages and abilities, featuring the ZipVenture® Freedom paired with the dynamic ZipVenture Duo and much more. A class in Central Community College’s occupational therapy assistant program influenced the original idea for this truly inclusive space that fosters a sense of belonging, acceptance and unity — and now it is a major family destination and one of the largest playspaces in the state of Nebraska.
