I've been to Finch Park since I was very young. I love how much they keep improving to make it better! It's a great place to take the kids to kill some energy, or if you're looking for somewhere hike without going out of town.
They have a big jungle gym, swings, and a huge patio area for games like four square, hopscotch, etc. They have a stage for performances, like during our multicultural festival. A huge pond with ducks and geese. Three or four different ball fields are available as well. They also have a decent amount of shelters for birthday parties or company outings.
Each shelter has two or three large trash bins and a small grill, as well as picnic tables. Very inexpensive to rent out! You'll have to call the city's recreational dept for renting information. You're not allowed to bring you own grill due to the park being in the city limits. But we had a company outing for at lest 100 people and we brought our own grills, they never bothered us about it.
The pond is a good decent size and has a small pier to fish off or just sit. There is a trail around the whole park where you can ride bikes or hike. There is also a hike at your own risk trail that goes further through the park. It's not dangerous, but there are a lot of limbs what not in the way. It takes you down to the open water area. Please be careful for there isn't anyone around to save you if you fall in!
Very friendly park. The ranger is nice and will assist if needed. I haven't been to their restrooms, but I can imagine it's as good as it can get. Love coming here! read more
