It's the long weekend! Which means extra time to go out and enjoy the sunshine and maybe even a spray park... like Bear Creek Park in Surrey that opened this past May!

We had a great time making a splash during the site tour and it's been well used over the summer.

A special thank you to Melody Smale from the City of Surrey, Genevieve Dumas from Vortex Aquatic Structures International Inc., and Stephen Heller from VDZ+A Consulting for their support with the project and joining in the community fun.

Have a happy and safe long weekend!

Regular maintenance is an important part of keeping playgrounds safe and functional. Inspections – whether formal or informal – should cover hazards such as equipment age, surface safety, tripping and fall hazards, railings, choking and entanglement hazards, equipment spacing, loose, broken, or missing equipment and fasteners.

If you see any hazards, report them to the owner/operator of the park, whether that’s the city or local municipality, local homeowners' association, or community league, to prevent further damage or an accident from occurring as a result. A safe park is a fun park!

Today is World Drowning Prevention Day. Whether you’re choosing to cool off in the ocean, a lake, river, bathtub or splash park, it’s important to practice water safety – especially with the amount of rain some places in Canada have had this year, Drowning can often be silent or go unnoticed until it’s too late, and infants or young children can drown in as little as 2.5 cm or 1 inch of water.

Here are some tips to help prevent drowning:

🛟 Designate a responsible sober adult to actively supervise and keep kids within arms reach in or around any body of water. This applies to places such as pools, bathtubs and hot tubs, lakes, rivers, ponds, fountains, irrigation and drainage ditches, wells, cisterns, livestock waterers, and even large water bowls for pets, coolers, cleaning buckets or toilets.

🛟 Learn to swim and how to do CPR - this applies to all ages! Being able to swim and tread water can be lifesaving, as can the basics of lifesaving and how to call 911 in the event of an emergency.

🛟 Use properly fitted life jackets or personal flotation devices (PFDs) and make sure they are in good repair, especially in natural bodies of water where currents may be present and unexpected. Puddle jumpers, water wings, and floaties are not substitutes for PFDs.

🛟 Teach kids about water safety like inspecting the swimming area for hazards, going feet first instead of head first into bodies of water (especially unknown ones), always swimming with a buddy and not pushing or jumping on others in or around water.

🛟 Don’t try to hold your breath for an extended period of time underwater or hyperventilate before going under. This can cause you to pass out and drown due to ‘shallow water blackout’ or ‘hypoxic blackout’.

If you’re out on the water, make sure you’re familiar with local boating and marine laws as well. Being water smart can mean the difference between enjoying a beautiful summer day or a storm of unfortunate events.

Stay safe and cool off this weekend by visiting one of your local parks!

It's summer vacation! Which means more time for fun outside and at the park. If you always tend to visit the same park during the school year, use summer holidays as a chance to explore somewhere new! Or if you’re driving through a town on vacation, find a playground to take a break at and get rid of some energy.

Forest Grove Park West Playground is a hidden gem, just off Highway 7 in Burnaby, BC. Surrounded by lush trees, trails, a soccer field, tennis courts, bathrooms, and picnic tables, Forest Grove is a great place for a pit stop or to spend an afternoon. It’s a climber’s dream with multiple rope and wall challenge elements for those who like to put their nimbleness to the test.

Whether you like walls or freestanding structures, we have lots of options for climbing! https://playquest.ca/playgrounds/freestanding-climbers-and-climbing-rocks/

While most playgrounds have slides, monkey bars, spinners, and other equipment, some opt for a more natural look to blend in with the surrounding environment and neighbourhood.

Carate Park in West Kelowna does just that. Designed with logs and rope, the playground provides opportunities to test balance and imagination in a modest, natural setting, surrounded by two pollinator gardens. It's an unexpected and fun oasis for multiple ages!

Add some natural beauty to your neighbourhood! https://playquest.ca/playgrounds/natural-playgrounds/

We've reached the longest day of the year, which means more hours for play! And what better way to cool off than going to a spray park. Calaway Park – located just outside Calgary – has a Spray’n’Play area which is a great place to beat the heat after a day of rides and excitement.

With 15 different water features, including water tables, fountains, and sprayers, kids and grownups alike can enjoy making a splash together.

If you’re interested in adding an aquatic area to your community park or business, we can help: https://playquest.ca/spray-parks/

And don’t forget to reapply your sunscreen after!

If fitness classes or traditional gyms aren’t your thing, try outdoor fitness equipment instead! It’s a good way to incorporate variation of movement into your routine to work different parts of your body and try something new. Combine it with a walk, run, or bike to enjoy a workout and the outdoors at the same time.

Recognizing the importance of staying active, the Alberta Sports Hall of Fame has a fitness park that visitors can enjoy and is a great stop along the QEII highway in Red Deer. Not only can you learn about sporting greats in Alberta, but you can shake off some of that driving soreness with the strider, chest press, elliptical, hand cycle, and recumbent bike – just watch out for the wildlife!

Special thank you to Shueme, the FIFA 2015 World Cup owl, and Askasoo, the 2019 Canada Games deer for being excellent ambassadors for sport and fitness and showing the summer camps how to use the equipment.

In 2024, we worked with Alexander First Nation on a new playground to accompany the renovations on their Kipohtakâw Education Centre (KEC). Serving students from pre-kindergarten through to grade 12, the centre is designed to nurture academic achievement and cultural identity. For the elementary kids of KEC, the playground is another opportunity to continue their land-based learning while serving the larger community as part of the gathering space.

One of the best parts of the playground building process is seeing the design go from digital to real life. Check out the comparison of the 3D rendering to the final playground!
