History
King Street Park
Englehart's newest playground is affectionately known as the Secret Park, as it is located off King Street at the north end of 6th Street. Not visible from the main street, this playground is enjoyed for its privacy and separation from traffic making it a relaxing place to watch your children play.
With lots of open green space, this is the place to start a game of soccer or tag. The Rock Wall and Spider Web are also big hits at this playground, and with lots of beach sand, it's not uncommon to see a variety of sand castles and other sculptures.
Pack a lunch, and enjoy a picnic at one of the tables, or spread out a blanket on the grass. This is a relaxing space for the whole family to enjoy.
Lion's Park
Located on the East end of 9th and 10th Avenues, this park is also known as the purple park, as the playground equipment is all purple and gold to reflect the colours of the Charlton & Englehart Lion's Club who sponsored this playground and have been serving their communities since 1980.
This playground has both sand and grass, and plenty of seating area for relaxing while the children play.
