Titterud Park <br /> Titterud is a neighborhood park in central Ramsey along CSAH 56 /Ramsey Boulevard,just south <br /> of the intersection of CSAH 5 /Nowthen Boulevard. There is a single softball field at the park, and <br /> the playground was replaced in 2005, and located entirely within the pastoral Bur Oak stand. The <br /> playground uses engineered wood fiber for surfacing,with two separate boulder borders. One unique <br /> element is the porous ADA concrete sidewalk connecting the parking lot,which allows precipitation <br /> and air to reach the tree's rooting zone beneath. <br /> There are three areas for playing one with the main play set, one with a swing set and two pieces <br /> of equipment for bouncing, and an empty sandbox (with pea gravel for surfacing). The bouncing <br /> equipment is in good condition. One consists of a spiral pole with a singular platform from bouncing <br /> and the other is in the shape of a ring, allowing for two children to take turns jumping and launching <br /> the other upward. <br /> The swing set is made of wooden posts and a metal crossbar, and has two belt swings. <br /> The main structure is largely wooden, but with metal guardrails and a single plastic slide with three <br /> parallel tracks and a plastic tunnel. The main means of entry is a transfer platform and staircase. <br /> Another entrance is via a gray plastic rock climbing wall attached to a series of twelve green arched <br /> climbing platforms arranged in circular patterns. Adjacent to this is a rope climbing ladder with four <br /> parallel ropes at the top for handholds. On the opposite end of the playground structure is another <br /> means of entry—a ladder consisting of seven rungs and another ladder connected at a 13 5-degree <br /> angle with four rungs. The fifth and sixth means of entry are a narrow ladder with a rope for <br /> balancing, and a corkscrew climber. One of the boards on the transfer surface was recently replaced, <br /> with the structure in overall in good condition. <br /> VIt <br /> A.. . <br /> , <br /> 4 ' <br /> Sr, <br /> 7.7 <br /> -F <br /> is <br /> 4 '- r <br /> Figure 56: Titterud Park Main Play Area <br /> lic AV <br /> .y <br /> r ' <br /> f <br /> k'4_f , }4 <br /> �• j <br /> °" .. ° I::. -.' , 1 ..
