About the Venue

The COMO Playground is located on the Stonington Community Center property and was upgraded with new equipment in 2022. Official materials say it includes sensory activities, equipment specifically suited to preschool-aged children, a shade structure, a basket swing, and climbing elements while still keeping fun options for a wider age range. This is a strong pick for families who want a more manageable community-center setting rather than a sprawling municipal park.
