Sprinklers in the summer. Two sides - one for big kids another for small. Lots of swings . Who could ask for more?
Great park big sprinkler lots of shade and safe play in a nice neighborhood
Separated playground spaces for younger and older kids, and then a separate big sprinkler space. Great park .
It's great for kids who like to collect acorns.
Awesomely shady in the summer.
Quiet and not too crowded on weekends. Some basketball fields even have good shades. - Sabrina Wang
Soul Summit was great, well attended and I attended both, always left in sweat. Tip- wear comfort shoes, something you don’t mind getting dusty, even if you don’t dance at all (-: - Todd Bracey
