New playground at Everett’s Legion Park a great addition

A big thank you to the Everett Parks and Recreation!

The new playground at Legion Park is incredibly amazing, such a wonderful addition to an already beautiful park.

We are lucky to have such open areas free to all people, feeling good about living in Everett.
