Tips for Your Trip from Other Parents

• Apply sunscreen before you leave your house. The playground is in full sun!
• There are two entrances to this park, the playgrounds are by the entrance off of 104th. However, if you’re hoping to get in a little walk or run for yourself first, park by the other entrance and make you way over to the playground on the paved trails!
• Bugs were not an issue.
• The picnic tables are shaded and it’s a great spot to have a picnic lunch with your family.
• The park can be very busy during baseball season (weekday evenings and Saturday mornings).
