Quite nice park to go to with your dog. That is, if your dog is big. My dog is small to medium at 25 pounds and pretty much 1 in 10 is smaller than him. He got attacked by a group of dogs recently ( then another rouge dog someone had off the leash ) so he has, what I would call PTSD, from it I would say because He was named happy for his personality And why he was selected by me for a service dog, but he has not been happy about any of the dogs he has been introduced to lately of any real size. I would say even with that going on we had a wonderful time at the park, which is not always the case and especially from where the other side of town where we just moved from. Bring your own set of checkers or chest pieces because they do have a wonderful set of tables as well for you to play on. I’ve included pictures of the tables as well showing them in day and very doable for all walks of human life. If you need shade and a breeze, these tables come equipped with that. I also wanted to take the time to mention that they have an high impact interval training system here( the green machines you see in the center of the park lines up to a cement walkway. I try to let everyone know this fact, which is this expensive park amenity is basically A FREE GYM for all of the people like me who are on a budget and really want to work out too. I will tell you two of the machines don’t work, one of which is the squat machine which you can technically use without any tension. Usually there is 11 or 10 steps/ individual machines in these systems where you do anywhere from 8 to 15 (to some people even do 30) but the average is about 8 to 15 repetitions of the exercise and then rapidly move down to the next machine. It keeps your target heart rate up, and as your endurance grows, you can move from one set of the different machines to 2, or 3 sets pausing for a suggested minute between the rounds minimum, It is a wonderful way to get a well-rounded workout with your taxpaying dollars. I have included pictures of the green high impact interval training machines as well.
I hope you have a safe and pleasant day...
Read moreThis is one of the nicer parks in the city. In my last review of the place, I complained about neglect of the infrastructure — but most of that seems to have been addressed. The water fountain now works, and the playground has been repaired. More attention seems to be given to the trash cans as well, as I haven't seen him overflowing for some time. This is, for the most part, a peaceful and relaxing place, and the northwest corner of the park is within range of several Wi-Fi hotspots. That said, my complaint about the lack of a public...
