In early 2010, Richland County Parks in South Carolina evaluated competitive offerings from outdoor equipment manufacturers and solution partners. As a Miracle representative, Churchich Recreation & Design was able to utilize very competitive pricing that Miracle offers because of its unique manufacturing approach. By the end of May, Churchich Recreation will have provided a complete, turn-key solution, including the equipment, wood fiber, timbers, installation and storage during preparation, for 7 park upgrades throughout the Richland County Park system. The playgrounds were designed to be “ADA ramped” which means that wheelchairs can access almost all parts of the structure because of low grade ramps that connect the play events. All playgrounds must meet ADA requirements but not all have to be ADA ramped.
