Corcoran Memorial Park playground is getting new surfacing! The playground will be closed and fenced off September 14-October 1* for the project to be completed. The pour-in-place surfacing requires dry conditions over 50 degrees to cure so it is really important that no one steps on it until it is completely cured or it will need to be redone and closed even longer.

Pardon our dust as we work to improve your parks!
📍 21 E Jonathan Rd Bothell, WA 98012

*Project dates are weather dependent.

The Day-Use Area (beach) and trails leading to the beach will be closed and blocked off. The only avaible trail will “trail to success” that goes around the campground.

We’re getting closer! We’re looking forward to welcoming everyone back to the improved day use area this fall. See progress photos and updates here: https://snocoparks.info/kp
