John Slidell Park — Attraction in Slidell

I took my the kids here for years and now I am taking thier kids.

The park is overall ok. While we were there someone brought thier dogs there and let them take a dump in the playground area and did not clean it up. It could use a little TLC by the city. A little raking and paint and it would be fine. This is why I gave it 3 stars.

The park playground has been renovated twice since I have lived here, over 35 years, and it has ball fields, playground, picnic areas, a walking/jogging/bike path and a gym. The play ground sits next to Robert Blvd. and is a few hundred...
