A new playground installation begins...

08/06/2026

What does a playground installation look like? Depending on the scope of the project it can range from a few days to several weeks. You can see the progression - site preparation, arrival of equipment, equipment unpack and inventory, layout and dig footers, begin to install poles, and then start to add the components that make it "look" like a playground!

More photos to come as the project progresses.

You don't realize just how tall this playground is until you make it to the top and look down! 🤯

Our team had an incredible time bringing the new Manderach Memorial Playground in Limerick Township to life. Designed for adventure, imagination, and inclusive play, this playground is packed with exciting features for kids of all ages. The project is part of the complete rebuild of the beloved community playground.

One detail you don't want to miss? The poured-in-place rubber surfacing! From vibrant colors to custom designs woven throughout the play area, the surfacing adds another layer of fun while creating a safe, durable, and accessible play environment.

From concept in 2025, to a clean slate in March of 2026... Look where we are today! Special thanks to Limerick Township for the opportunity to build such an amazing playground, and to Playcraft Systems and all of our installation partners; a project like this truly takes a village - we could not do it alone!

What started as sketches on paper is now a full-blown adventure waiting for kids to discover - slides, climbers, and all the little details that turn a playground into a destination. Every crew that stepped onto this site left their mark, and it shows. We can't wait for opening day!

Talk about a view. Probably one of the best conference venues I have attended.

We’re proud to see the incredible progress at Manderach Memorial Playground in Limerick Township, PA! 🌟

As the largest project River Valley Recreation has installed to date, this custom memorial playground was designed to give a beloved community space the refresh it deserved, creating an engaging and lasting place for families and children to enjoy for years to come.

From planning and design through installation, our team was honored to partner with Limerick Township on bringing this vision to life. We’re also excited to celebrate the project being recognized as a 2025 Playground of Distinction! 👏

Thank you to Limerick Township for trusting River Valley Recreation with this meaningful project, and thank you to Playcraft Systems for being a valued partner throughout the process.
