Anna City Park — Attraction in Anna

My daughter loves going to play at the park. It recently (in the last 10 years) has gotten new play equipment. There is even a small one for the younger kids.

Please do not judge the park due to its surrounding drug problem. The park is a nice...

Watched the Harness Races at the Anna Fairgrounds, Anna City Park. This was at the beginning of Union Co Fair. The grass was cut close. It was pretty. The grandstands a bit discomfortable. They are aluminum. I would rather set on wood boards. But I know the aluminum/steel will last longer. Got a BBQ from Kiwanis which was good as always.
