Lea McKeighan Park - South — Attraction in Lee's Summit

This is a beautiful park. Very much so a people person's park because there are so many children on the playground but even for other there's wide grassy areas for you to have a picnic or play a game far away from kids. The atmosphere is really nice. And for people who want to know about running on the circular trail, it takes about 4 laps around to get a mile. I also really like how the sidewalk connects right to the park so if you want, you could walk downtown as well. Again, really nice park, it's got a little something for everybody. Oh ya! The Zipline thing for kids, SUPER fun when you're alone later in the day.

IMPORTANT EDIT: This emphasizes how safe this park is. I roller skate around the loop there on a regular basis, apparently so regular I ran into the same old man over and over. Eventually he had the gall to sit next to me during my water break on a beach and try to get me to his house for a bottle of wine. I told him I was 17 and skated off but I was able to skate into a crowd of people not just away, I asked them to pretend I was in their group because he was following me and that's exactly what happened. I haven't seen him since and I'm grateful for that family. It's also across the road from a police station if I really had to make sure he stayed...

Went there for a 5 yr old's birthday party. There were babies, toddlers, teens, adults, and seniors citizens there--all playing on the playground, courts, zip line, and splash pad at one point or another! It was a blast! Perfect for cooling off, and the playground equipment had a variety of activities and equipment for all ages. We saw some ppl working on parkour or something similar on the obstacle course/zipline. The water shuts off at 8 pm, which was perfect because my 2 yr old wouldn't have stopped playing unless it had. The only complaint I have is that the bathroom sink I used had zero water pressure and there are no paper towels, which normally I'm ok with but we didn't bring napkins cuz we all figured there'd be paper towels lol so just keep...
