Fraser's McKinley Barrier-Free Park & Playground for People of ALL Abilities

From a few outdated swings and play pieces and a deteriorating basketball court, McKinley Barrier-Free Park now features a “Walk and Roll” path, pavilion, comfort station, toddler sand lot, benches, play structures, and a parking lot - all accessible by people with special challenges. The park also incorporates educational and sensory experiences that can be enjoyed by all.

The project is a community partnership between the City of Fraser and the Fraser First Booster Club, a 501c(3) non-profit, as well as other groups and organizations. This collaboration has resulted in a Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund grant, a Land, Water, Conservation Fund grant, as well as other grants and significant private donations to fund the construction.
