Imerman Memorial Park — Attraction in Saginaw Charter Township

Stopped here on a long road trip to walk my dogs.

Big, clean park. Lots of grass lawn with forest perimeter that dogs love. They can access the river for wading at the boat launch.

Petty complaint: the speed bump signs are excessive, I thought. Could have a simple, small sign that just says - speed bump. These were comically big, with “CAUTION” as if Speed Bump was the name of a maniac guard dog roaming the park. Meh. Maybe years ago someone damaged their car on one and then sued the city. I can see that happening. Anyway, it’s funny. When you enter the park there’s a big sign telling you thar be speed bumps out thar.

All the stuck up women are just rude to people who show up with a dog they don't like. I highly recommend avoiding this place if you have a friendly dog that is considered a "bully breed" unless you'd like...

One of best multi-purpose parks in Saginaw County with river access, fishing & observation docks, covered picnic shelters, playgrounds tennis & basketball & hockey rink in winter. Two dog park fenced areas for smaller dogs and larger has a few agility items, but their dog watering apparatus is presently almost impossible to use and the dog area has struggled in last few years with outbreaks of kennel cough, which they have combatted by aggressively changing out the non-lawn areas' surfaces with new bark mulch which has seemed to help. Dog park attendees should consider giving their pets the very simple nasal "squirt" kennel cough vaccine every 6 months if they plan on using this popular...
