    The Urban Ecology Center Washington Park tries to do an incredible job. The programs show great promise. But sadly SOME of the employees make it difficult. I get hung up on every time I have called to ask questions about the programs. Which has been several different times now. If the person: -Doesn't want to answer the phone - they pick up and immediately hang up. - When they do answer the phone - If they don't know an answer instead of connecting to someone who does - they HANG up. Didn't happen once or twice but ... EVERY. Single. Time. I give up! Completely unprofessional .. Not worth the hassle.

    I love this place- beauty in the middle of the city, and an amazingly friendly staff always there to help you. In the winter, we snow-shoed and today we canoed and fished

    Washington Park is a great place for kids to get active and not get hurt it is also and it also has a soft brown for kids just in case they fall I softly hit the ground they will never get hurt only if they are not looking like he gets hit in to the pole this is a great place for kids to play they can also explore them because it's a great place for them to learn about nature ducks it's a great place for kids together don't ever take them to dangerous places that they don't need to go it's a great time at Washington and I wish you a very good day.

    Washington Park is a beautiful place. I've been coming here since I was a kid. It's a great place to jog, play, ride your bike in or just relax.

    The Park has been making a comeback, with a new playground, a branch of the Urban Ecology Center making full use of the old County lagoon pavilion, and a revitalized program of music concerts in the ampitheater that wa refurbished with funding from Harley-Davidson!
