In 2015, Hailey's Wish assisted the Town of Manchester in purchasing amazing, innovative accessible playground components to create an inclusive playground at Christmas Tree Park. There is no other playground in the area that has as many accessible play activities as this playground. 
This playground was the best decision ever made and the feedback from the community has been wonderful!
And now we are so excited to share the exciting news about the new accessible rubber surfacing that was installed on the playground in October 2025!  Thanks to our amazing supporters, we were able to help the Town of Manchester achieve this goal. 

We are so grateful to the Town of Manchester for their continued dedication to making this playground the most inclusive playground in the area!! 

The addition of the rubber playground surfacing is a game changer for children and adults with mobility challenges. 
We hope this improvement will allow families to visit the playground more often and play longer without fatigue.
The Christmas Tree Park Inclusive Playground includes the following accessible activities:
2-Track Zip Krooz Zipline
Ooodle Swing
We-saw See-Saw
Omni Spin Merry-Go-Round
Roller Slide
2-Bay Swing Set with 2 High Back Bucket Swings
Music and Activity Panels

In July 2018 we were able to add a new double swing bay with 2 ADA high back swings and 2 belt swings. Thank you to the Unchained Few MC for their generous donation, to the local community for supporting our carnival week fundraisers and to the Town of Manchester for all their hard work in getting the swings installed! One more fun activity for children of all abilities!

Come visit the Hailey's Wish Inclusive Playground!

Dreams do Come True!

We are already working on our next project goals and we can wait to share more details soon!

A year ago, we created the vision board above to share our dream of bringing a sensory trail to life—complete with musical instruments, interactive sensory panels, and accessible raised garden beds. Thanks to the incredible generosity and support of our community, that dream is becoming a reality. We have now secured all of the elements needed to create the sensory trail.

 

Even more exciting, our original vision has grown beyond what we imagined. Through the generous support of a grant, we now have the opportunity to create a dedicated sensory garden in addition to the sensory trail, transforming our initial dream into an even more engaging, inclusive, and meaningful experience for visitors of all abilities.
