Cranberry Township Facilities

Kids Castle – a community-built playground, is fit for a Prince or Princess! 

The design of Kids Castle is intended to evoke the progress of Cranberry itself over the past 40 years. The play apparatus in each of three areas was selected to reflect the technology and culture of its time.  It is open to the public, free of charge, during daylight hours all year long (weather permitting.)  More information...

• The Past area consists of swings, climbing spaces, rolling hills, and spring-mounted riding animals.
• The Present area incorporates the features most requested by the students surveyed, including many of the same features found in Playground Palace.
• The Future area includes futuristic EVOS play structures, Mobius climbers, a bubble rider, and other leading-edge equipment.

This playground replaced a 22-year old wooden Playtime Palace. It was dedicated in late September 2013. It includes three thematic play areas, involved approximately 300 community volunteers, in addition to work by Township Public Works personnel and the project’s contractor.

Donations from Township residents, local businesses, Cranberry Township Community Chest (CTCC) and the Cranberry CUP organization, together with contributions from the municipal government of Cranberry Township, financed the $500,000 facility.
