Visit for Pride Festival, well organized, security staff etc. I would given it a **FIVE**, but one event there was a dunk tank (of which I love), However, with this INADEQUATE SETUP, it was DANGEROUS, during 2 diff time frames we sat on picnic tables with other people and many others all around for shade etc with their kids and babies, I counted 7 times the softball used for dunk tank sailed over their back drop (again inadequate and unsafe for this venue) striking me once on back of my neck and hitting another in the jaw, other times bounced between people. However last straw was when I was hit in the side omy head/eye, of which I have a black eye, the people running that event didnt care, very lackadaisical and blamed the participants, granted they could have controlled it/reconfigured the backdrop for better safety. They blew me off, I reported this to staff and showed them my eye, they went over and SHUT THEM DOWN. I do appreciate the working security staff for their understanding and concern. If this would have been a kid or a baby... could been been really bad and a law suit...the people/company that operated this event should NEVER be allowed again to get a permit, unless they have a pre-approved setup for safety.

I had a wonderful time at Military Park. I had never been there before. I went there on June 11th and it was packed. I had to wait in line which was no big deal since there were so many people there that day. I had walked about 3 tenths of a mile after finding ample parking. When I got in, there were people directing visitors where to buy tickets and that was easy. Once in it may have crowded but really wasn't bad unless you don't like crowds. Lots of information booths which was great to see. I enjoy "people watching' and boy did I get a lot of that! I talked to several people at business booths which was nice. I bought two really cool t-shirts, stickers! Everyone loves stickers! LOL I checked out the venders next. Seen there was a stage and nice music with lots of people sitting on the ground enjoying themselves. I was just very nice. Lots of food available but the lines to order and buy were way too long for me! I will definitely go back next year and my son recommended that I volunteer, which sounds like a wonderful idea.

We spent the day taking in everything. Walking into the War Museum my breath was taken away. The detail to everything was amazing. The layout is well done. Start with the tomb of the unknown. Absolutely astonishing and well done. The monuments for WWI, WWII, Korea and Vietnam are amazing. Each had the names of the lost inscribed so that they would not have died in vane. The monolith, again well done. I'll have to look online and see who is represented by the carvings. I know one to be Moses, the other three I can't quite place. I took hundreds of pictures. The only problem we had was some of the location description at the pedastals were not readable. That did not deter our awe of the Hall.

Great looking canal walk with two good restaurants and museums. Several Bridges with paintings covering the supports. Gondola rides and a military memorial. Though I give 5 stars because I enjoyed the scenery... I'd only give 2 because of the patrons. Inconsiderate people on bikes, scooters, those powered 1 wheel things, and all others will plague your otherwise serene walk. It was designed to be a walking path but you will be hounded by a-holes trying to push through the whole time. My advice is go on a weekday and/or later in the evening to avoid the majority of them. To those of you who use those modes of transportation... You obviously don't understand the way to enjoy these kinds of parks and are ruining it for...
