About the Venue

Overlook Park in Pocahontas gained meaningful accessibility upgrades when the city added a wheelchair swing and a jenny swing in 2022. While public details are lighter than some larger city systems, this park stands out in the region because the upgrade was specifically framed around helping children with disabilities participate more fully. It is best understood as a smaller local playground with notable accessible swing support rather than a full destination all-abilities park.
