Streetcar Park In-Ground Slide Project

Recent enhancements to Streetcar Park along the Lake Links Trail in Mahtomedi include a trailhead kiosk, bike racks, a portable toilet, and picnic tables to meet the needs of all ages. The park offers a great place for everyone to rest, gather, and play. The covered bridge, stream, log bridges and natural play area are also proving to be a fun area for kids. However, Streetcar Park lacks a signature play element. 

​

This slide would be located next to the picnic area on the embankment leading toward the stream and two crossing logs. It would have fun natural steps to go back up, plus mulch and gravel areas around it to preserve the soils. It would be away from trail traffic and also within close supervision by parents at the picnic area. Here is an example and the proposed installation:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

​The in-ground slide would be supplied by an established manufacturer  with all the required Consumer Product Safety Commission components and design criteria. It would cost approximately $4,800, including mulch, top platform, landing zone, etc. Mahtomedi City employees and volunteers would install the slide and steps.


Please donate now to help us get to the  $4,800 to provide for the purchase of this slide and accessories that will be a signature item in the park for young people. Thank you for your consideration.
