Thompson Park in Overland Park, KS, is an absolute gem of a community space! From the moment you step foot into this lush, green oasis, you're greeted with a sense of tranquility and serenity that's hard to find elsewhere.

The park's well-maintained grounds offer the perfect backdrop for a leisurely stroll, a family picnic, or even a game of frisbee with friends. The walking paths are beautifully landscaped, making it a joy to explore every corner of this expansive park.

One of the standout features of Thompson Park is its thoughtful amenities. Whether you're looking to break a sweat on the tennis courts, let the kids burn off some energy at the playground, or simply relax under the shade of a towering tree, there's something here for everyone.

Plus, the park's location couldn't be better! Situated in the heart of Overland Park, it's easily accessible from all corners of the city, making it a convenient spot for locals and visitors alike.

Overall, Thompson Park is a true community treasure. Whether you're seeking outdoor adventure, peaceful relaxation, or simply a place to connect with nature, this park has it all. Highly recommend a visit—you won't be disappointed! 🌳✨ #ThompsonPark #OverlandPark...

There is a neat alcove that offers WiFi and 110v outlets for public use as an outdoor work area.

My only complaint is the obvious lack of trash and recycling cans, and I only hope the city will add these receptacles as the park welcomes visitors...

Thompson Park is one of our family's favorite parks. It has been remodeled in the last 5 years and has a great playground, splash pad, interactive things for the kids to do, and lots of places to sit and just enjoy the environment.

There is a pavilion with a grill and picnic tables for big events and individual tables spaced around the park for smaller gatherings, too. There's a concert stage and enough of a grassy area in front of it to seat a large audience. It's one of our favorite places to...

Family-friendly fun around Kansas City in May! SHARE with family and friends! 🚂 Kansas City Northern Miniature Railroad: This adorable mini train with a fun tunnel is great for little kids.

It’s 50 cents for a bag of food that can be purchased anytime the marinas are open. 💦 Splash Pads open early: Save this for sunny days in May to cool off! 📍Erfurt Park, 24135 W 71st St, Shawnee, KS 📍Wilder Bluff Park, 24200 W. 55th St., Shawnee, KS 📍Zona Rosa Central Park, Kansas City, MO 📍Thompson Park, 8045 Santa Fe Dr, Overland Park, KS 66204 📍Sapling Grove Park, 8210 Grant St, Overland Park, KS 66204 📍Roe Park, 10400 Roe, Overland Park, Kansas 66207 📍Lake Olathe Sprayground, 221 S Beaver Shelter Ln, Olathe, KS 66061 📚 Rabbit Hole KC: Vist the new incredible, immersive interactive children’s museum, The Rabbit hOle!

Each of the nine-holes on the course is a creative interpretation of a work of art in the museum’s collection.
