Cascade Park — Attraction in Summit Township

The park is looking nice this time of year. When I was a kid 26 years ago the ponds around the park were mossy and green but, I have never seen them that gunked up. They removed the basketball court where my grandma took me to shoot my first big boy shots. They have also updated the play area with a splash pad area and removed the old concrete climbing area we all use to call the cheese area is all gone now. The park is beautifying but, not quickly enough for the growing young families that plan to stay here in Jackson. A toddler friendly play area for the rambunctious 1year old with just a slide, some stairs and maybe some low climbing obstacles but, not a bridge and big metal grated ladders. There's nothing for little ones to do there but, run through the grass and hope not to get hurt on the oversized play area. The smallest toy was the baby swing which had no canopy to block the sun so, it was scorching hot. C'mon Jackson, when designing a park keep the children in mind, and how this will be use and under what weather conditions. Thank...

It was 5 stars until they closed the some of the roads. It is now a huge pain to leave after firework events. People were parking in front of and behind people that were parked on the side of rudoplh. When it was 2 lanes going 1 way each there was plenty of parking, and you could get out fairly easily. Now everyone is parked on one side, and trying to go left or right instead of one direction while leaving, causing a mess. On the 4th of July 2022 traffic wasn't moving for about 30 min. People were driving down the closed road, through the park, anyway they could get out. It's also a bit of a pain to leave the playground area on brown if you are turning left going north out of the parking area. If a long line of cars is heading south on brown it takes forever to get out, unless someone is polite and let's you out. What was so bad about the roads before? We went to memorial day and 4th of July fireworks this year, we don't plan on going to labor day or any future unless they fix the...
