    New and REALLY improved!
    Tom V.

    If you're going to re-make something, then you should probably take the time to do it well, and do it right. That is even more necessary when it is a government-funded project. Spend those public funds right! Johnson County has lots of green space and lots of modernized playground equipment. There are many pockets that need attention, and Strang Park was one of those places. For the longest time, Strang Park was just a small open space with a walking path, a basketball court, and scattered play equipment. Now, it is a multi-sensory, multifunction, full family-use facility. playground equipment that is safe and fun, with amenities such as inground trampolines included in the build, providing fun for children of all ages. For those that want to have the opportunity to relax while you watch the littles, check out the lineup of Adirondack chairs just under a large shady tree, waiting for you to get those photo ops as the moments of your kids' lives occur. The design of the park incorporates the legacy of the Strang Line rail route, with pieces of rail built into the shelter and portions of the original line still bordering the north end of the park. The shelter is large and modern, and the tennis/pickleball courts offer just the right amount of opportunity for outdoor enjoyment. There is still a path that encircles the park, and the full loop measures just around a half-mile. Like I said, Johnson County had the opportunity to do it right and they got it done! This is now one of the nicer parks in the Lenexa area, if not the entirety of Johnson County. Well done JoCo, well done.

    Great new all inclusive playground tucked away in a neighborhood area. Liked that there was a large parking lot, bathrooms and a fence around the playground area for safety. On a weekend day it was very busy, but overall enough equipment for all the kids to play on. My kiddos loved the in-ground trampolines, slides, swings and rope climb through the best. It's nice that there's plenty of seating for adults who are watching little ones and tables if you bring a snack.

    Great for all ages. Kids love the mini trampolines. Nice picnic area too and misters if it's really hot!

    We went to this wonderful show room to try out all the play sets they have. They have open play for…read more$8 cash or $9 with credit card. They have wonderfully made play sets that are very sturdy and high quality. Our grandson enjoyed trying out all of them and the mini basket ball court and trampolines. I highly recommend for fun and for purchase for a backyard.

    When I was a kid growing up we had one of these play systems in our backyard and I remember the day…read moreit was installed all the way up until the day my parents had it removed when I was an adult. The one my parents installed in their backyard in the 90s lasted three kids and over 20 years with regular maintenance. When it came time for us to look into a swingset for our daughters as tempted as I was by the kidcraft DIY ones at Costco, we ended up going with Rainbow simply because the kidcraft wooden playhouse in our backyard has been up for maybe three years and LOOKS it. We were a bit worried about how something we DIY might hold up so we figured we'd pay a bit more and go this route. First of all these things are expensive. There is no way around that. The website always says things are heavily discounted, like it never changes cost and is always on sale, so I think it's just the way they try to get you to pull the trigger - like OH it's not actually 7grand, it's ONLY 2 grand. I'd prefer they just be a bit more transparent on that, but I appreciate that it could be more. Once we were sold on the unit we wanted we decided to make the trek out to Olathe to see it in person and make sure we knew what we were doing. It was April, and honestly we were wanting to move quickly so we could have one installed early in the summer season. There is conflicting information on when they are open online - in some places it says they have hours on Sundays and on others it says they are closed. We couldn't figure out what the case was so we went there and they were closed to the public. The door was open and we thought oh, maybe we could just speak with a sales person but nobody was around so we just went home and ordered the one we wanted online. Now, their website is a bit dated but it worked okay. It was a little scary placing an order this big in this way, but we had no other time to get out to Olathe in the near future and decided it was worth it. Again, IRL would have been better because I would have asked about small add ons like a pirate telescope and baby swing, neither of which you can just add on via their website. At any rate, we made the purchase and a rep from their team was in contact with me by Monday morning which really impressed me! She told me the timeframe we'd be looking at and what to expect next. As the timeframe of 3-5 week delivery creeped into the three week mark I emailed asking about next steps and didn't hear back for several days. The following week I emailed again, and again no response so I called. Calling prompted an email and we got it scheduled and ultimately installed pretty quickly at that point. The installer was SO NICE and so fast. It was insanely impressive how they get these things up quickly. The main thing here is that these are impressive, well made, playsets. The folks working here are very kind, and thoughtful. Sometimes things just move slower than you might want, or you might have to reach out to get questions answered. Would I recommend Rainbow? For sure! Could they turn this into a 5 star experience with a few small tweaks? Absolutely. If you're not me though, learn from me, and go on a Saturday, talk to the sales people and I'm sure you'll have a smoother experience.

My daughter has been here since she was 1 month old. After taking her first steps, she walked the trail of roe park. So it's safe to say that this park not only gives you a fun time but there are great memories built here too. They have a play area for the littles and for the bigger kids, a walking trail for walking and bicycling, tennis courts, baseball field, open yard space for both soccer and football, benches and shelter area, and when it's hot out...a water park! I highly recommend this park to parents and guardians, I guarantee your kid will walk away happy after visiting.

These are the kinds of parks that make my heart warm. As for activities, there's a couple playgrounds, tennis courts, baseketball court, soccer fields, a walking trail with a small creek surrounding it, and plenty of space for kids (and adults) to run amuck and enjoy the outdoors. Other things offered are covered seating areas, picnic tables, and restrooms that surprisingly are clean! Speaking of clean, the people here make sure to do their part and keep things tidy. This involves the basic human acts of courtesy such as picking up and throwing away their trash and picking up the crap left from their pets. It was quite busy when I arrived as there was a kids birthday party, several people walking the trail, and a few couples having a nice picnic. On a Saturday when the sun is out and there's a nice cool breeze, I'd expect nothing less!
