They have several benches stationed around the track. Warren Road Community Center also offers several workout options for indoor. They have an instructor that teaches BeastMode, LoudCrowd, Belly Dance, Karate, Zumba and Yoga. You can also utilize the tennis or basketball courts. There's also a great playground for kids too! There aren't a lot of parking spaces, so it could get crowded on days/times when classes are going on.

It stands as a representation of a small town once here, but overtaken by the growth of Augusta. There are benches to sit and you can walk to the top (behind and under the large sculpture) to get a great view of the new Cyber Center. This is technically on the corner or Reynolds and 12th Street so walking to it is a breeze. Be sure to visit regularly though as it looks like they are adding historical plaques finally. *Insider's Tip -Come anytime, but especially at sunset. It makes for beautiful pictures (selfies and landscape).

This 2.5 acre park adjacent to Springfield Baptist Church celebrates the legacy and aspirations of…read morethe oldest black church in the United States and the community from which it sprang. A reflecting pool, bronze historical plaques and a 45-foot stainless-steel sculpture by Richard Hunt highlight the park. World renowned sculptor Richard Hunt unveiled his masterpiece "Tower of Aspirations" in this new urban park on February 10, 2002. The second sculpture titled "And They Went Down Both into the Water" was unveiled on June 1, 2006. Still under development for the park are plaques explaining the history of Augusta's Springfield area and the importance that Springfield Baptist Church played in the early and ongoing history of Georgia. This is a beautiful area and there once was a botanical garden just across the street that boasted beautiful greenery and flowers. I scouted this location for an upcoming photo shoot I am doing. I think this is a perfect location with its sleek and elegant look. It will definitely compliment the wardrobe in this photo shoot. I'm very excited to feature this park in my artwork. I know the images will be outstanding and very classic.

When you first enter, the community center and library are immediately on the right. There are tennis and basketball courts on the lefts. About 1/4 of a mile in, there are two separate playgrounds next to softball/baseball fields. My kids had a great time running around and playing on the various pieces of equipment. We'll definitely remember this park if we're in the area again!

Augusta wears its unofficial slogan of "We Feel Good" with an ease that matches the city's…read morepersonality, and it fits the way the place feels when you arrive. On both of my visits I found a beautiful and genuinely hospitable Southern city, one shaped by deep layers of history stretching from the Colonial and Revolutionary eras to the present day. The Augusta Museum of History captures that sweep with clarity, from early settlement to the Masters, and especially in its full exhibit honoring James Brown aks "the Hardest Working Man in Show Business." Stepping outside to see his statue and the mural nearby makes the "I Feel Good" spirit https://youtu.be/W-rn7i_ETYc feel less like a slogan and more like a lived identity. Broad Street gives Augusta its cultural rhythm, a long stretch of restaurants, galleries, and storefronts that feels lively without being overwhelming, while Greene Street offers a quieter walk lined with monuments that remind you how much national history passed through this city. The riverwalk is one of Augusta's great pleasures, whether you're biking along the water or taking a slow stroll before settling in for a cold beer at Savannah River Brewing. Even in the off season the city feels active but not crowded, and the everyday conveniences help too, like the fact that street parking is free and easy to find, leaving you free to wander at your own pace. Visiting outside the Masters window makes a noticeable difference, and if you prefer a calmer experience it's worth checking the golf calendar before you go, since Augusta transforms during tournament season. Off season, though, the city offers a relaxed mix of history, culture, and local flavor that feels grounded, welcoming, and unmistakably tied to its musical heritage. It's the kind of place where you leave already planning your next visit, humming a little James Brown under your breath because, well, you really do feel good.

They have 4 community computers that are open to anyone (they will log you in). I did not walk around much but I noticed there was an upstairs and a few soundproof study rooms. I was told you have to put money on your jagcard to print but for some reason, it would not load for me. Thankfully I was only printing 2 articles so they allowed me to print free of charge. The computers I was on seemed small and dated but other than that it appeared to be a basic library. Nothing fancy.

The marker reads, "This house was for many years the home of Marie Cromer Seigler (1882-1964), educator and national pioneer in agricultural instruction. In 1910, as teacher and principal of Talatha School, she founded a Girls' Tomato Club, the first of many such clubs nationwide and a forerunner, along with the Boys' Corn Clubs, of the national 4-H Clubs, supported by the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture." And on the reverse, "Marie Cromer said of her efforts to encourage girls and young women interested in agriculture, "I made up my mind I was going to do something for country girls." With the support of Aiken Co. Superintendent of Education Cecil H. Seigler, whom she married in 1912, she established Home Demonstration clubs and created Home Economics courses in Aiken Co. schools. She died here in 1964."
