Alaska’s state capital city of Juneau is nestled in a lush area of the panhandle, with stunning views of the Gastineau Channel and Mount Roberts as far as the eyes can see. Adults love the pristine beauty that the area offers, but kiddos can get a bit stir crazy due to the immense amount of rainfall (and snow) that is common in the area.
When this magical outdoor playground was dreamt up in 2005 and finished a handful of years later, the entire town rejoiced in the phenomenal masterpiece that it undeniably became. We are ecstatic to present to you with the story behind Project Playground at Twin Lakes. Enjoy!
The goal of this playground was that it be built with the love, care and compassion of community members - from the creative imaginations and perspectives of Alaskan children.
This entire playground was a creative community partnership of grassroots efforts, non-profit volunteers, businesses and the City & Borough of Juneau, Alaska's capital city.
Wild, natural, sustainable seafood is the name of the game in Alaska. In fact, Alaskans rely on the plentiful seafood sources to feed their families and pay their bills.
The purse seiner fishing vessel with a mongoose and an epic view of the mountains is what Alaskan playground dreams are made of.
That's right! This enchanting playground is a popular place for kiddos to enjoy all year long. All you need is a good pair of snow boots and a warm coat and you're good to go!
