Editor's Take

If the full project components are open as described, this is one of the most important inclusive recreation builds in the Michiana area.

About the Venue

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.
