The Decatur County Inclusion Park is in Rebekah Park on the east side of Greensburg and includes equipment made for children of all ages and all abilities. With the growing need to be welcoming to, and accommodating of, all families, this project represents a universally designed, sensory-rich environment that enables all children to develop physically, socially, and emotionally. Focus is placed on the physical accommodations, such as meeting ADA accessibility requirements; engagement of the senses so kids can explore the various opportunities of the space; and integration with other park features, so the kids playing in the Inclusion Park do not feel separated from other children. By being integrated with the existing amenities of Rebekah Park, the Inclusion Park capitalizes on the existing splash pad, amphitheater, picnic pavilions, dog park and paved walking trail featured at the popular location.
