Miracle League Park at Normain Park is Mishawaka’s large-scale inclusive recreation project built around a Miracle League baseball field and a fully inclusive playground. Official city pages describe the site as including a splash pad, accessible restrooms, a Sona Arch interactive play structure, pavilions, and sensory areas in addition to the playground. This is shaping up as one of the region’s strongest destination-style inclusive parks for families who need more than a standard playset.
