Mainlands Park opened in 2014 in Tamarac to remedy the issue of lack of parks on the east side of…read morethe city. The 23-acre city park was named for Mainlands, a 55 and up community consisting of 529 homes that was established in 1968. The park is in the section 3 and 4 subdivision. The land for the park was once part of the Monterey Golf Club. The main draw to the park is for people looking to exercise. Walking and jogging trails run along the perimeter and there are fitness stations at different intervals. There is also a covered outdoor gym with fitness equipment. Other park amenities include a restroom, non motorized boat launch, fishing pier/observation platform, covered picnic tables, drinking fountains, and public art benches. My favorite park was the discovery of burrowing owls. Burrowing owls are considered endangered, threatened or of special concern in nine U.S. states. Unlike other owls they are not strictly nocturnal and are active during the day. They make their nests in underground burrows, which are dug out by ground squirrels and they prefer open grasslands. Burrowing owls are protected by the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act so you have to leave them alone. It was a treat to see so many owls in the park before leaving them in peace.

This is a new park for the city of Tamarac, having opened just a few weeks ago…read more While it looks pretty nondescript upon arriving at the small parking lot, it really has a lot to offer. Something that needs to be taken into consideration, however, is that it's in the middle of a 55+ community, so it's not like other public parks. That being said, it does have some nice features, especially for our older population. It's a 23 acre park, making it a nice size without being too large to walk around easily. There is also wifi access. It is dog friendly, but they must be leashed. You can circumnavigate the park either on foot or by bike, using the wide, concrete path that is big enough for two bikes side by side. It's sprinkled with covered picnic tables, covered benches and water fountains. There is an exercise route that can be followed. Some of the stops have just one piece of equipment, while others have more. Each one is carefully labeled as to how to safely use the equipment. This a a nice change from having equipment and not telling people how to use it correctly. There is also a special workout station for wheelchair users! At one end of the loop, which seems to be about a mile in length, there is a small fishing "pier", giving access to the canal. In the center of the park is a nice little pond for scenic appeal. Personally, I think they should add a couple of nice pavilions with electricity and BBQ grills for bigger groups. There's plenty of room. Also the picnic tables have such a small cover that if it really rains, (Go Florida!), there is better access to places to stay dry. I know that some of us in the "seniors" age range can't scamper fast enough it we get a sudden cloudburst. My other observation is that it would be nice to have a small playground for residents who have grandchildren visiting. Overall, this is a well designed little park and an asset to the community.
