LOVE this park! I hosted my baby shower here and it was great to accommodate everyone. So much to do here from the vast play areas, picnic areas, water activities, walking paths, and music at the amphitheater! Very clean and welcoming. They have a lot of fun events like the live music or Easter Egg Hunt. Dog friendly. Overall amazing, so lucky to have this park near me

A ribbon-cutting ceremony celebrated the official opening of the new carousel, bringing back a beloved attraction that has been missing since 1998. We look forward to pictures and video.

The park has gotten some very needed and very worth it upgrades in the last few years. I enjoy walking my dogs through the park most days and strolling through with my camera taking in the beautiful birds, flower beds and recently upgraded pond.

3/19/25- As a dad, I rarely take the kids to the park; however, my wife frequently takes them, so they are well-acquainted with the various playgrounds. Yesterday, I had the opportunity to see the new playgrounds for the first time. The facilities are beautifully designed and very impressive. I observed a range of playgrounds catering to different age groups, allowing children of all ages to have an enjoyable experience. I like how the playgrounds are separate yet close enough to enable families to stay together. The park was bustling with parents and children, as well as teenagers, all having a great time even with the overcast skies. ⛔️ However, I did notice two grown men on the different platforms, which seemed out of place. I would recommend that parents exercise caution and supervise their children, rather than dropping them off. This is merely my opinion and a suggested safety precaution. ⛔️ The park also features walkways that are ideal for getting some exercise or riding a bike. There is plenty to see, and I anticipate that once the zoo, train, and other attractions open, the park will be crowded. I suggest visiting the park while it is still quiet to make the most of
