About the Venue

Carrier Park is a major all-inclusive recreation facility in the Town of DeWitt and one of the most significant accessible outdoor play sites in this region. Official town pages describe it as a state-of-the-art, all-inclusive, fully handicap accessible outdoor complex with a cutting-edge playground, specially designed basketball courts, walking trails, onsite bathrooms, and access for children and adults including those with special needs. It is especially useful for families planning longer outings, sibling visits across age ranges, or trips where accessible recreation beyond the playground matters too.
