About Us:

Kerrville Playscape is a non-profit organization comprised of parents and grandparents striving to enrich the lives of our children and community.  

Mission:

For families to work together to improve our  community and provide our children with safe, creative and inspiring environments in which to play. These community areas will be unique play areas for families to interact in the outdoor setting. They will provide creative, physically challenging play for all ages and be accessible to all of the community.

History:

We organized in July 2000 for the purpose of creating a playground at Singing Winds Park. In June 2001 that project was complete. It is now the most popular playground in Kerrville and, according to the City of Kerrville Parks and Recreation Department, the most used.In August 2004 we added a much needed shade cover for the toddler area of Singing Winds. In January 2005 we received permission from City Council for upgrades to Elm Creek Park. Those improvements were completed in June 2005.

Our most recent efforts have been aimed at bringing an open, no-pay skate park to Kerrville. The skate park is a long awaited and almost necessary addition to our parks system. We need to take the responsibility of providing kids with a safe area in which to participate in this new, exciting, increasingly popular sport. Future sights are being set on the development of a Family Aquatic Center. It will include: a lazy river for both younger and older patrons to enjoy, a toddler play area with no standing water, a multi-level splash pad, and towered slides or downhill flumes for the thrill-seeking crowds.
