From the reviews
…Paved walking trails, rose garden, tennis courts, archery and ball fields, dog park, running track, children's play area and summer concerts and occasional arts and crafts shows. Plenty of parking on the LEFT side of the roads and in 2 lots. Safe and beautiful. Highly recommended.
…There's a brand new track as well as a year old playground for the kids. I feel fortunate to have this park so close to home. In the summer they have concerts and art shows.
…There's also a professional running tracks and some other walkways through the park where you can run. Furthermore a beautiful playground for the kids. During the weekends it can be quite busy here, so parking space can be limited.
…Large dog parks, running track, bike lane, great space overall.
