The play set contains four slides two straight slides on the east side of the structure (one of which has a hump and the other of which has two tracks) and two slides on the west side(one enclosed and one curved 360 degrees). There are seven points of entry one transfer surface and staircase on the southern end of the playground; one transfer surface at the end of a track-ride; five stepping platforms; one chain-link ladder with a curved metal handrail; one curved ladder with four semi- rectangular footholds; one straight ladder with five footholds; one corkscrew climber.
