BIG NEWS: A new playground is coming to Twin Brook in Spring 2027! 🛝 🎉
Twin Brook is already our favorite spot for walks, activities, and weekend games, but it’s about to get even better! We are thrilled to announce a new playground coming to the park, designed for kids ages 1½ to 12.
Here’s a quick peek at what’s in store:
• Perfect for Families: 2,900 sq. ft. of play space with separate areas for toddlers and older kids making it a great spot for siblings during sporting events, or during the school day when school playgrounds are closed!
• Convenient Location: Situated near the red shelter building, keeping play close to bathroom facilities and primary athletic play spaces.
• Accessible & Inclusive: Ground-level components, musical instruments, and sensory panels so every child can join in.
• Safe & Sustainable: Features a PFAS-free, poured-in-place rubber surface for smooth, slip-resistant, year-round play and less maintenance.
• Park Friendly Design: Earth-tone colors that blend into Twin Brook’s natural beauty, with new plantings and seating to be added after installation.
• Expertly Planned: Custom-designed and unanimously recommended by a dedicated subcommittee of town staff, Recreation Advisory board members, a Certified Playground Inspector, and a local municipal/school facilities director!
Funding was allocated in 2024, the project came in under $200k, and the equipment has officially been delivered! We’ll be breaking ground and installing it in Spring 2027.
Stay tuned for updates as we get ready to build this amazing new spot for Cumberland families! 🌳
