About the Venue

Civic Memorial Playground at Civic Memorial Park in West Lebanon is one of the clearest inclusive-play fits in the Dartmouth–Lake Sunapee region. The city reopened the playground in May 2025 with a design intended to serve children ages 2–12 with a broad range of physical abilities, rubberized surfacing that meets newer New Hampshire accessibility expectations, and connections to sidewalks, ADA parking, and bathrooms. Families looking for a modern public playground with stronger mobility access than a typical neighborhood park will find this a worthwhile stop, especially for mixed-age visits and longer outdoor play sessions.
