Scotty's PlayhousePlayhouse Picture
Scotty's Playhouse was built in honor of Scott Banke, Karina Hargis and Grace Blanchard—three children who, by some standards, left this world far to early. A large mural, rising 30 feet above the floor memorializes the lives of these three children and others. The 3,000 sq. ft. playhouse also contains one of the largest indoor play structures in the Northwest, as well as a tot lot for younger kids and a cafe seating area for adults.Though Scotty's Playhouse pays tribute to Scott, Karina and Grace, it is a gift to all children in this community from the parents of those the children, from the See Ya Later Foundation and from the Church on the Hill family.

OPEN PLAY SESSIONS are free to all children eleven and younger.
