National Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows

Children's Memorial Playground


Playground at the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows Hotel

A two-acre playground with a spiritual theme was added to the Shrine grounds in the summer of 2002.  This recreational area is fun for children of all ages.  It provides parents and grandparents a backdrop for some religious instruction.  The seven days of creation are colorfully depicted in a rubberized walking surface that circles the playground.  At the entrance to this wonderful play area is a life-size sculpture of a kneeling Jesus, created by artist Tom Foppe.  

Future additions to compliment the playground will include a large memorial foundation and additional sculptures of children.
