DECATUR, Ill. (WCIA) — Summer is all about getting outside, and there’s a new place in Decatur where you can be active a dozen different ways.

Fairview Park offers a complete package for families, featuring a sports area, playgrounds, exercise stations, and more. The project, which cost $1.5 million, is now complete. It includes a 40-yard dash with a timer, an obstacle course for those who want to pretend they’re ninja warriors, and circuit training areas for a full workout.

Numerous families attended the ribbon-cutting event to explore the park’s new amenities. Local parents and children expressed their enthusiasm for the completed project.

“The enclosed spaces provide confidence for the kids as they climb,” said Brittany Wentworth. “The climbing equipment is tall enough for my older kids to enjoy without feeling like they’re just helping out or playing with younger children at the park.”

That’s important to Wentworth, who has a five- and 11-year-old. She said she’ll be coming to Fairview Park more often now because it’s more of an open space.

The park district said they’ll be adding a bicycle skill course. It’ll focus on teaching kids the rules of the bike trail. They’re hoping it’ll be finished by the end of summer.
