Playground equipment designed for the heavier demand as needed from schools and municipalities

Top-Quality Commercial Playground Equipment

Bear Playgrounds (Steve Baker) partnered with Snider Recreation in 2004 as the Western Pennsylvania sales rep, providing top-quality commercial playground equipment. We can provide, install, and service any type of public playground. If you are planning to add a playground to your school, childcare, church, local park, etc., call Steve Baker at Snider Recreation.

Community Support

Snider Recreation also supports and endorses many playground grants and charities that promote the creation of recreational play environments. These environments encourage play in kids of all abilities, allowing them to develop and thrive physically, emotionally, and socially.


O’Hara Township Community Park

O’Hara Township, PA

When O’Hara Township’s Council decided they wanted an ADA-inclusive playground for the park, they turned to their local Sales Representative, Steve Baker, at Snider Recreation. After many months of design and installation, the playground opened!

The playground theme is “By Land and By Sea,” including the popular pirate ship. The ship structure is “all-inclusive,” with transition steps, ramps, and surfacing. This public playground is accessible for all levels of motor disabilities and also includes a wheelchair-accessible motion cruiser.

Other equipment includes the inclusive freedom swing, a climbing wall, a comet spinner, and water-themed spring animals. This design addresses many types of disabilities. Autistic, visually impaired, and hearing-impaired children will enjoy the interactive braille, music, and game activity stations alongside the other children on the playground.

Austin’s Place

Butler, PA

This playground was designed specifically for adult use, and it was one of the most unique and rewarding projects Snider Recreation has had the privilege to design and install. Austin’s Place provides specialized one-on-one training for young adults who are moderately to significantly impaired.

Austin’s Place wanted an outdoor therapeutic center that would meet their clients’ specialized physical and developmental needs and allow them to experience the joy found in playground equipment. Many were able to discover the thrill of swinging, sliding, and spinning for the very first time.

Steve Baker worked closely with the founders of Austin’s Place to design an accessible and therapeutic play environment. The result is an enjoyable area that benefits every one of their clients.

The School at McGuire Memorial

New Brighton, PA

The McGuire Memorial School came to Snider Recreation with a need for an all-inclusive play space that would encompass the needs of all its students. McGuire Memorial provides special education services for students with multiple disabilities or who are on the autism spectrum.

The design brought in a pirate ship-themed play structure that was loaded with fun! You will find viper and spiral slides, a cargo net, and a ship bow climber on the ship. To complement the pirate ship theme, there is a telescope, a shipboard panel with a porthole, and a mast with a Jolly Roger flag! The pirate ship is connected to another play structure by a long bridge, a rock n’ roll slide, a balcony, a leaf climber, and a cruiser!
