Dream Playground
THE MAGICAL PLACE FOR CHILDREN
IN PORT ANGELES
The Dream Playground at Erickson Park has two areas. One is for five years and below and the other is for five years and above. Adjacent to the Dream Playground are picnic tables, a pavilion with tables, a skateboard park, tennis courts, and restroom facilities. It's a perfect place to have a picnic after the children are through playing.
DREAM PLAYGROUND HISTORY
The Children of Port Angeles, Washington dreamed up something special, and our community pulled together to make their dream a reality.
The Port Angeles Dream Playground was built over five days in September of 2002 by more than two thousand volunteers with tools and equipment loaned by the community and is one of the largest volunteer projects Clallam County has ever seen. This amazing effort was akin to an old-fashioned barn-raising with people of all ages participating in the build. Over $185,000 was raised to pay for the construction. Most of the funds came from a host of local businesses and more than 10,000 individual contributors.
In 2009, the volunteers became restless and created an 800 square-foot pavilion adjacent to the playground.
