Chisholm Center Playground

If you’re a DeLand local with kids who are past the toddler swing stage, this is a solid spot to know about. The basketball court gets decent use, and the open grass field gives teens and older kids actual room to run around without feeling cramped. Restrooms are kept clean, which honestly isn’t something you can take for granted at a lot of public spots around here. The center pulls double duty — beyond casual drop-in time, it hosts organized programs and events, so it’s worth checking what’s going on before you head over.
