History
A soaring success story, Central Creek Park is a world-class inclusive outdoor recreation complex. Thanks to the generosity of local donors, the $9 million 13-acre park is nearly complete.
Lydia Wright squealed and giggled as her brother Michael pushed her on a swing at Goose Creek’s new, state-of-the-art Central Creek Park. The new barrier-free playground was designed with all children in mind.
Goose Creek’s Crystal Reed says the main goal is to include kids of all ages and abilities in this place of fun. Other features include basketball courts, volleyball courts, and a pavilion called the Eubanks Sports Area. It’s all part of the $9 million park at 147 Old Moncks Corner Road. Opened in December, the facility also boasts a walking trail and Splash Creek, named for Councilwoman Debra Green-Fletcher.
Splash Creek
Goose Creek’s barrier-free Central Creek Park opened in December 2022 and features Debra’s Playground, Splash Creek, a field, a staging area, a walking trail, and Eubanks Athletic Courts. Private donors helped make the $9 million project a reality by giving leadership gifts and naming opportunities.
Splash Creek is designed to be accessible for children with disabilities and visitors using wheelchairs, walkers, and strollers, as well as toddlers just learning to walk. Interactive water play features like Mr. Crab Crab, Belle Creature Jelly Fish, and Big Kahuna Wave provide sensory stimulation for all ages and abilities.

Debra’s Playground
GOOSE CREEK, SC – As parents know, finding child care can be difficult. But when 9-year-old Debra Harrell’s home was robbed and she could not afford daycare, she did what any parent would do: She dropped her daughter off at the local playground to play unsupervised.
Central Creek Park is the city’s newest recreation complex that includes basketball and volleyball courts, a food truck pavilion, walking trails, a splash pad, and more. But the main attraction is a new inclusive playground named in honor of Councilmember Debra Green-Fletcher.
The 26,000-square-foot Debra’s Playground is designed with everyone in mind, offering wheelchair-accessible surfacing and sensory equipment. The curated mix of ground-level and elevated play components like the We Go Round merry-go-round, Sway Fun Glider, and ZipKrooz are designed to develop children’s motor, cognitive, and social skills.
