peppermint.jpgPeppermint Park is a 7-acre neighborhood park located next to Pepper Ridge Elementary School in Southwest Boise.

Park amenities include open space, trees, pathways, restroom and picnic shelter.

The restroom and shelter were funded by Mayor's Neighborhood Reinvestment Grants awarded to the Southwest Ada County Alliance. 

Initial development of the park was dedicated on Oct. 27, 2006 by Mayor David Bieter, Meridian School District Superintendent Linda Clark, neighbors and students at Pepper Ridge Elementary School. Development of the site was funded by West Bench Neighborhood Impact Fees levied on new home construction and allocated by the Mayor and City Council with input from a citizen committee.peppswings
