Share Your Photos of Thornton Creek's New Playground

A crowd of students, volunteers and school staff gathered Thursday morning for the grand opening of Thornton Creek Elementary School's new playground.

Children roared and cheered as they tried out the equipment Thursday on Thornton Creek Elementary School's new playground.

The playground is not only all new equipment but features an inclusive play design fit for children of all abilities. 

The school and volunteers raised $105,000 for the playground, said Thornton Creek Principal Alison Epler. The school also won a $50,000 grand prize in a national contest with playground manufacturer Landscape Structures.
