"Got kids? Bring 'em here! The Caper Acres fantasy playground is a favorite with the park's younger crowd. They will enjoy the slides, jungle gyms and various other fairy-tale thematic contraptions, while parents will enjoy how easy it is to keep an eye on it all. The playground went through extensive remodeling in the wake of some damaging storms a few years ago. Now it is better than ever, including a new "treehouse" play structure. Next to the One-Mile playing field, Caper Acres is open daily.":

"Caper Acres playground is also located in the One Mile Recreation Area. Originally constructed in the 1950s, the playground provides a fairy tale-themed location for children to play in. Many play attractions in the playground were destroyed by a storm in 1995, but were rebuilt by members of the community. Adult visitors to the playground must be accompanied by a child 13 years of age or younger.":

"Caper Acres...is a wonderful playground strictly for kids--specifically little kids. In fact, the sign on the entrance gate says adults may not enter unless accompanied by a child, which seems fair enough.":

"This fun little park is located behind the baseball diamonds at One Mile. It's absolutely made for kids--and their parents. I mean, the entrance is kid-size, and their parents have to duck to get in. How's that for kid-friendly? The park features wonderful wooden play gyms, an "underground" bunker for the adventurous little ones, slides and swings galore, and plenty of picnic areas. It's a popular spot for birthday parties, and there's a special place (reservations required) made just for parties. But there's also plenty of space for impromptu get-togethers, so it's likely that just by showing up, you'll find a space.":
