    Just off Bonnie Brae and down Windsor is an assortment of activity that makes up North Lakes Park. You will see a large park with a playground and a long, paved walking path, planted trees, a golf course, a rec center, etc. There is even a recycling area at the end, but it doesn't really fit in with the motif of the park. I personally like to go to the small section off Bonnie Brae where a small lake is located. It's quite peaceful and never too crowded. We typically see a handful of people there and they are either fishing or jogging the gravel path. There are several paths into a wooded area that I occasionally see someone hiking, but everything I've explored is relatively flat, so it's easy. There are a lot of ducks and birds there, they are really friendly because they expect you to feed them. If you're scared of birds, you've been warned. They even have a piece of the original county line road bridge that has been moved there with a historical marker! A majority of the trees are quite mature, so it feels like a real escape. Sometimes we just stop by for a little while to semi-picnic and look at nature. It appears small from the road, but it has enough sections spread out that you're never disturbed by others. It's nothing crazy impressive, but it's nice to have a little serenity in the midst of all the traffic and construction.

    Peaceful respite within a very short drive of civilization. The sounds of traffic are clearly audible. Fishing allowed in the little ponds, drive up to the water or brave the walk around the edges. Wish I'd brought my bike, as there Is a trail running through the large area.

    Pretty scenery to look at while taking a stroll through the park!

    Came here for a mid-morning run since the sun finally decided to break through today! Even after lots of rain and snow the past few weeks, this park was great to run in since they have some paved sidewalks. They do also have a gravel trail as well, but it was still muddy in some parts. Only downside is the sidewalk seemed to end after awhile. Not sure if I just needed to keep going to find where it connects, but it doesn't seem to go around the entire park. It's right across from the North Lakes Rec center and there's also a place where it appears they hold air shows. They also have picnic tables, children's play area and some baseball fields. Will continue to visit as long as my friend, the sun, continues to visit as well!

    The playground is mediocre, but the soccer, baseball, drone, and other amenities are worth the visit.

    Quakertown Park is nestled today between the Quakertown Civis Center, Denton City Hall, and the…read moreDenton Senior Center. It has a past that is less pretty than the park is today. 100 years ago, it was home to a thriving middle-class Black communtiy. From the 1870's until about 1920 it remained a neighborhood settled by formerly enslaved families. In the early days, it was called Freedman Town. They later named the town Quakertown in honor of the Quakers who aided in the abolition of slavery. All was well until 1920 when a nearby college (now Texas Women's University) decided having a Black neighborhood so close to campus was not good for the university. They petitioned the city and long story short, the neighborhood was moved. Like so many stories like this, you will be hard pressed to find the story in official public records . For years it was nowhere to be found. The name of the park that was created when the neighborhood was vacated was City Park for decades until in the 1980's when activists were able to get the history back in the books. In 2007 the park was officially named Quakertown Park again out of respect for the community that had been erased from where this park stands

I spent the next several years in Budapest, and, where I taught profit-driven business practices, such as accounting and marketing skills to former Soviet Union assets of transferrable funds to United States shell companies, such as we are now changing gears for, after the last four years of system overloading. Enjoy the seagulls, though they never disturb paying customers too much anyway. Smile, you are on Candid Camera! Cheers, Mark C. Fearing, Ph.D.
