Inclusive playground opens Thursday in Mundelein

The Kracklauer Park inclusive playground at Route 45 and Seymour Avenue in Mundelein will open to the public at 3 p.m. Thursday, June 19.

The space is designed for people of all abilities, including children, adults and seniors, to play, explore and connect. An official ribbon cutting for the $1.6 million project will be held later in summer.

Besides a playground, the park site includes boccia courts, a fishing station and a pollinator garden as accessible amenities.
