Editor's Take

About the Venue

Project Playground at Twin Lakes is one of the clearest inclusive-play destinations in the Alaska Panhandle. The City and Borough of Juneau describes it as a playground for children of all ages and abilities, and the site was rebuilt and upgraded over time with accessibility improvements and safety surfacing. Families will find a large, imaginative outdoor play environment at Twin Lakes Park with seating, pavilions, and room for longer visits rather than just a quick stop.
