Easy Walker Park

👍👍 This is the closest park to where we live. My kids enjoy the playgrounds, though if it rains the swings are out of the question. There is a small pond at the park where you can go fishing if you have a permit/license. There are also different sports areas (baseball/softball, tennis, etc). Plus walk...

Botts Park
Park
🫤 Difficult to play disc golf when grass is NEVER mowed (only bush hogged when cut). Walking trail is nice. Lots of parking. Park bathrooms are being installed, still..... Park is small but adequate. If they improve upkeep, it could be top notch disc golf. Until then...good luck finding discs.
