The park area surrounding the WARF (the Warrenton Sports Complex) features seven rectangular playing fields, paved hiking paths (view the Trail Map (PDF) ), an inline skating rink and skate park, and the Claude Moore Fun For All Playground. The Claude Moore Fun For All Playground was constructed for all children, with a particular focus on accessibility for children with disabilities. The park is designed to help all children with physical, social and psychological development and provides a place where children of differing abilities and their families can come together and have fun.
