"This park has a lot of potential. The softball fields are really awesome. I loved playing at this field. But as far as where the kids play at. The school district needs to invest in some Management Team to clean it up a bit. Question? Have we ever taken a power washer and made sure the jungle gym and all swings been whipped down and disinfected? Just a thought."

Additionally, it commonly includes a baseball field, where local teams and residents can enjoy America's favorite pastime.
