Thoroughbred Park — Attraction in Lexington

The park is beautiful and they have a lot of Pokestops, which is what attracted my family and me to the park in the first place. They have a playground for children and beautiful fountains, as well as amazing statues. The problem is that it's not safe at all. I had a teenager try to zap me with a stun gun back in the fall. I didn't know him, as I live about 50 miles away, but he walked up behind me really quickly and I thankfully heard the stun gun before he pressed it against my body, so I got away without being shocked. The police came and didn't do anything to this young man.

The huge Christmas wreath was a nice touch on the...

The statues and fountain were neat to see. The problem we encountered while there was a family swimming in the fountain. They had their dog tied around one of the lights and all it did was bark while a little boy splashed everything. Then a lady that is with said boy gets in the water wearing only her bra and puts a kitten in to swim. All this is taking place under the do not swim sign. Then at the other end, there was a couple dry humping at the mini horse statue. The whole visit was a great family experience. There is a cool park right across the street we retreated to and spend about...
