Powered by GoogleWe keep coming back for the events, the people and the classes. My daughter took dance and went to camps here for years. They have a nice little playground and a wide open field well kept. Make sure to check their events calendar
Love that they have events for kids every Friday
We Loved this park! When we went it was clean, sunny with lots of wide open space. My kiddo loved the wide pathways and ramps and the simplicity of the play structure. It felt less stressful for me not having to worry about my little one getting stuck on a tall structure or fall off any complicated bars/ ropes. No sand or water play so a great low mess play stop. Lots of space to run and play in the grass without running into other groups or feeling crowded. I love the accessibility of the play structure with ramp entrance and smooth cement all the way out to the play area from the parking lot.
This community center hosts a wide array of community events, from Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous meetings to wedding showers and baby showers to community rummage sales. There's an excess of large open areas for ball playing, as well as relatively decent sized play structures/equipment for the kiddos. Parking can be frustrating, especially during the summer months or for events, as the parking lot just isn't big enough.
The best park in the neighborhood. There's a sandy playground, large sports fields and plenty of shady places to sit. The community center makes a great party place any time of the year. The bike paths are perfect for teaching kids to ride a bike too.
