This park has an awesome playground for big and little kids. A swimming beach is right across the street.

The playground was the best part of this park and it was demolished May 11th 2022. I hope whatever they replace it with compares. I understand it was getting old, but the city wasn't exactly maintaining it either. It's a shame.
