    Burt Reynolds Park - A playground in shade

    Burt Reynolds Park

    This park is big!…read more In the front is the fire department and a lot of boat trailer parking, with 2 or 3 loading docks for boats,etc.. In the middle is the (wonderful!) Loxahatchee River Center. I had never been farther than here, until recently. It is worth checking out! Behind the Center is a large parking lot with several secluded spots with picnic tables that sit along the River, a large covered pavilion that is rentable, a lot of what looks like horseshoe tossing stations, a volleyball court (without a net), a sweet little playground, and nice public bathrooms. The playground here is great - rarely busy, it has just enough different elements to keep it fun, plus swings. It is shady, with a lovely waterfront breeze, and benches for adults to sit on. While it is not fenced in, it is connected to a picnic area and generally feels pretty secluded. When the playground gets old, my kids and I walked towards the public docks. There is a paddleboard renting structure there, where you can rent one by using a credit card, but the lifejackets are pretty sun-worn-out. Really cool concept though! My kids like to walk out on the docks and check out the boats that frequent this area. There is also a kayak entrance where they can get their feet wet next to the mangroves. After hitting up this area and back in my car, I finally drove the loop behind the Center. It is all waterfront, with little covered picnic spots and river access for those with kayaks or canoes. What perfect spots for a gathering or hangout. These are almost hidden, as the road loops one way and parking is all in the grass.

    This park was a stop on our Sunday adventure. You can't travel through Jupiter without paying…read moretribute to the passing of it's favorite son Burt Reynolds. The park was named for Burt who was a lifelong resident of the area. The 35.55 acre park that bears his name spans both sides of US Highway 1. The main attraction of the park is the Loxahatchee River Center which has aquariums and interactive exhibits. Unfortunately it was closed on our visit. There is also a nature area out back. If you are a boater or fisherman you can do both recreational activities here. There are boat ramps and canoe and kayak launches. 2,000 feet ofthe park is on the intracoastal. There is also a playground, sand volleyball court, picnic pavilion, picnic tables, grills, and a restroom. I think that it is really nice that Jupiter decided to honor Burt by naming a park for him. He gave a lot back to his community and although he is no longer with us his presence still looms large in the town that he loved.

    This is such an excellent park for all ages- fenced in, in a perfect spot behind the Jupiter…read morelibrary, a great place to hit after going there, so your kids can get energy out but also get some books. Also nice to be able to use their bathroom if needed. My kids have visited here since they were young and they still love the playground equipment, which is varied, and just the ability to run around the grassy areas here. There is a circle paved walking path around the equipment so it is nice to have the option of walking while the kids play. During the past few visits, my kids made friends with other kids and they came up with some collective game. There are picnic tables and pavilions inside, and the middle walkway is popular as a shortcut for those on foot, so I definitely am on guard with so many adults around. Great playground!

    Officer Bruce St. Laurent, badge 323 had served with the Jupiter police department for 20 years…read morewhen his police motorcycle was struck by a pickup truck on the I-95 southbound on-ramp from 45th Street in West Palm Beach. At the time Officer St. Laurent was working on a motorcade that was escorting President Barack Obama from a campaign event in Palm Beach County. He passed away on September 9, 2012 at the age of 55 at St. Mary's Medical Center. Officer St. Laurent was known for his love of playing Santa Claus and his work with neighborhood groups. He is survived by his wife and four children. Pine Gardens Park was renamed in his honor in 2016. This small one acre park is located behind the Jupiter branch of the Palm Beach County Library. Park amenities includes 2 playgrounds, one for older children and one for younger, There are climbing structures, slides, and swings. The playground is nicer than average for a small park. Even I had fun climbing to the top. The park also has a bench and gazebo with table. After taking the kids to the library you can visit the park for a picnic and play. What a great way to honor and remember a beloved officer who served his community with honor and who made the ultimate sacrifice.
