An accessible swing was installed at the ROC playground in June of 2021. Called the Freedom Glider, the swing was made possible with the help of a donation from Peaceful Hearts Georgina Foundation. The ROC was chosen for its central location and accessible amenities such as parking, washrooms and the splash pad. The ROC also has accessible parking.
