CURRENT PROJECTS

Lake Antoine Park Community Playground The Lake Antoine Park Partners recognize the need for a more accessible play space at Lake Antoine Park in Dickinson County. For this reason, we have set our sights on creating an accessible playground for all ages and abilities to enjoy. The updated playground will add 3,100 square feet to the two existing play structures at the park. A rubberized turf will underlay the equipment. New paved handicapped parking spaces will be added, as well as a concrete sidewalk connecting the space to the Beach House. Additions to the playground will include two zero-transfer pieces, meaning a wheelchair user can roll right onto the equipment to use it. Sensory panels, communication boards, a music station and other accessible playground equipment will be added to provide users with a variety of motions and sensory input. It is our dream that all generations will be able to utilize this space and enjoy Lake Antoine Park together. As we finalize the planning stage of this project, we estimate the cost to be $300,000. Currently, we have raised $80,000 through grants and local donations. We need our community's help to make this a reality! Past Project: Sunset Beach Lake Antoine Park Partners (LAPP), in keeping with its mission to improve and promote Lake Antoine Park, would like to restore the built and natural features of the beach house lake frontage, including a historic sunset viewing area. The project name, “Sunset Beach,” will offer an accessible location to highlight one of the community’s best natural assets: the Lake Antoine sunsets. In the center of the Park's shoreline, in front of the beach house, will be revitalized with a 150' long boulder retaining wall, new concrete walkways, a picnic area, native landscaping, and a seating area for sunset viewing. All the components of this area will be ADA accessible to welcome visitors of all abilities to the beachfront area. Handicap parking is available at the adjoining roadside.
