MacKenzie Park in the northeast area of Lubbock, TX, has a ton of recreational opportunities:…read more Baseball Fields, Canyon Run Dog Park, Crossroads in Time Sculpture Garden (dedication Oct 2004), Disc Golf Course, Equestrian Trail, Joyland Amusement Park, Meadowbrook Golf Course, Moonlight Musicals Amphitheatre, Mustangs-Sculpture by Steve Teeters, Prairie Dog Town, Santa Land, and softball fields. This area is also home to MacKenzie Park Lake. Watching the water birds on the partially frozen water was both soothing and amusing on Christmas Day (2022). There were multiple benches, picnic areas, a playground, reserved picnic pavilions, restrooms, and a seasonal snack concession area. Entry was free at least during the winter. There was close access to Interstate 27. On the days my daughters & I visited, it was hard to tell if RVs & truck drivers would find this to be an easy pit stop to access as there were road closures due to a sewer renovation project.

If the owner out east Texas kept a closer eye on the west Texas branch the organization as a whole would be better. Don't waste your time or money here and find a better organization to play for. If you don't believe me just ask the retention rates of players from year to year and that will give an answer. EGO and arrogance of the Manager will continue to kill this place. Avoid at all cost!!!!

You can drive all over the park and see prairie dogs. I went at 9am and 5pm and they were always out everywhere. You can buy lettuce and carrots to feed them; they will likely run into a hole when you throw out food, but it's fun to see them snack on it. Throw food, drive into another area, then come back and watch them. It's right off I27 and easy to access. A must when visiting Lubbock!

Patterson Park is the "Central Park" of Wolfforth. Located right off US82, it's easy access as you…read morecome into town. The largest parking area is accessible off of the frontage road beside the pond. There is a gravel road that wraps around the outside of the park connecting through multiple separate parking areas, eventually arriving at the community center. The pond water level is quite low these days. It's for fishing only, though I can't imagine wanting to do anything but look at it and listen to the circulation fountain - it's kinda gross and smelly. Nearby is a playground for the kids with monkey bars, swing set, slide, and jungle gym. Several covered picnic tables fill the area near the pond. These are probably great in the summer for keeping you out of the sun. The park is dotted with pecan, pine, and oak trees. Great, welcome respite from the flat monotony of West Texas. The back corner has a football field with field goals which can also be used for soccer. The primary remaining space contains five baseball fields, four of which join at the center around a two storey announcers' building. Between all of this is a covered stage/performance area, albeit without permanent seating in place in front. There's a single basketball hoop on a concrete pad, but not a second one or a full court. Right beside the stage is a small community center building. There's the remains of what was once a volleyball court, though I can hardly call it that in the current condition. A walking path on dirt, gravel, and grass traces the circumference around the park. This would make for a decent place to run, which appeals most to me. My original photos are from December 2022. At the time, the park is relatively empty due to the cold, windy winter and a only really a haven for the migrating Canada goose flocks. There are usually decent crowds of people using the baseball fields here in summer. There is a general feeling of abandonment and disrepair, though. I chock this up mostly to the harshness of our climate, but definitely see room for improvements where the city of Wolfforth could invest some time and money to improve things at their one and only park.

Got a time early Saturday afternoon 4/22/17. We got there a bit late, since my teenage daughter and friend asked if I could drop them off at the movies, we live in Plainview. They were very understanding. The owners son was there to get us going. They have 4 cages and can have use of a manual fed pitching machine, no extra! We had 3 boys and they charged just $15 for an hour. Hope I don't get anyone in trouble, cause that seems cheap. Since there wasn't anyone else at the time, they were nice enough to let the 2 who weren't hitting off the machine to use a t-ball stand in the next cage. It was very well kept, clean and organized. Can't wait to go back. Thanks! Oh, they do take credit cards, they use the Square attached to a phone.
