 The Casey Rohrer Accessible Playground

Casey Rohrer, late Hermosa Beach resident, and his mother were instrumental in advocating for the 2016 renovation of South Park, which introduced accessible play features. Rohrer wished for a park that was accessible to all children. He was not only an inspiration for the project but was also involved in designing the universally accessible playground. During the South Park Ribbon Cutting Ceremony to celebrate the park’s renovation, Rohrer shared “(..) this playground is great because all kids can play together now.”

In 2025, City Council approved the naming of the accessible playground at South Park in honor of Casey Rohrer. The naming is acknowledged by a plaque on bench overlooking the playground, just east of it.
