Prince Albert’s premiere playground reopens with exciting expansion
Local politicians and families were on hand for the grand reopening of the Canadian Tire Jumpstart Inclusive Playground Monday.
The 7,000 foot expansion makes the facility at the Alfred Jenkins Field House one of the largest playgrounds in Canada, at over 17,000 square feet in size.
Donor Malcolm Jenkins of Canadian Tire explained in the age of smartphones and video games, it’s so important to give kids opportunities for active play.
“One of these kids is going to be the next Prime Minister of Canada,” Jenkins said. “And I want him to be fit and healthy, as well as have a good brain.”
