Read more about this location
Funtopia is the signature inclusive playground at American Legion Park in Elizabethtown. The city rebuilt and reopened it in 2021 as an all-inclusive play space with separate areas for ages 2 to 5 and 5 to 12, plus slides, varied swing options, interactive and sensory panels, and wheelchair-accessible design. It works well for mixed-age family outings because the larger park also includes restrooms, trails, pickleball courts, a par-3 golf course, and the seasonal American Legion Waterpark nearby.
