Blue River Memorial Park — Attraction in Shelbyville

You may also rent pavilions if you know ahead of time.

For as pretty & as big as the whole park is itself I think they could really upgrade it to make people want to take their kids there even more esp over other parks in town. The splash pad is also pretty sad, they need something more like Greenfield. I’d rather drive out of town. The kids get super board super fast. Other than that the walking path is nice and dog...

This park is super fun for all walks of life! The playground equipment is great for the kiddos and has swings accessible for handicapped children too. The shelter house is humungous and is a fantastic place for eats! This park is a huge splash in summertime everyone with it awesome Splashpad!

Along with baseball diamonds, soccar fields, and being a huge part of the Blue River Trail what more can you ask for! This is a wonderful addition to our community and I am...
