Bertha Ross Park — Attraction in Indianapolis

A very quiet and peaceful place to go just wonderful I take my kids there all the time especially on the weekend when we go there and watch the little guys practice for football it's amazing watching them call the plays and run around and exercise before they play and in the summer time the sprinkler part cools us down instantly and we stay doing our summer gatherings family get-togethers and BBQs we love the Bertha Ross park also the size of the park is absolutely on point it's not too big and it's not too small great size parking area only thing I wouldn't recommend is using the restroom it's never clean and disgusting in there also it has a very strong unpleasant smell Jesus no I do not let my kids use it in there and you have to bring your own toilet paper to wipe and put on the toilet seat and it's no soap to wash your hands so you have to bring your own soap or hand sanitizer other than that the park overall it's amazing when you go there you will have a wonderful time...

so when walking thru this park that has been near and dear to me sense a youngun I see they moved the basketball court way over across the street directly in a spot where there is no shade for the basketball players where as before the courts where very well shaded so no one will pass out from the heat...but they did add this water pad thingy and also this huge thing where kids can climb on but there is this huge metal pipe that's connected to this thing and I got closer to this metal pipe I heard what sounds to me water flowing thru and going to directly to the water fountains of the water pad. Now I'm on a mission to figure out where is this water coming from because Riverside park has one and there is a water pad on Lafayette Rd as well and they are very close to the white river. So is this water coming from white river? ¿is this water filled with with the heavy metals and other dangerous poisons that's in the tap water? This water is definitely not...

My child hood park!The Best Neighborhood Park in the city! I personally knew Mrs.Ross who the park is named after, she was a great mentor in the Community! She started a baseball leagues for the children in the neighborhood to teach us discipline and give us something to do! Our whole family played baseball at golden hill and my father was the umpire of the baseball games. When Mrs.Ross died we signed a petition to change the name because she change alot of children lives in the neighborhood with baseball and activities in the park! Mrs.Ross was a very nice lady! What great memories of her growing up in the park ! She left an impact on each one of us! To this day we have big 41 Reunion at Bertha Ross park memoring how everything got started as children right...
