Pop Up Playground: What is a Pop Up Playground? It’s a one-day, temporary event in which the Bayfield community will have the chance to “dream big” and build your fantasy playground, recreation center, kayak park or other recreational amenity for Bayfield’s future. Your participation will help inform the recommendations in the Town’s Parks, Open Space, Trails and Recreation Master Plan.
