Slides and climbing walls, seesaws and rocking horse type equipment. Benches for those wishing to take in the beautifully sculpted and landscaped scenery. A place for exercizing and relaxing the mind from everyday stressors. They also have a musical section with several chimes and drums for the youth to enhance their music skills. They make a wonderful tone that permiates throughout the playarea of the park.

    OBVIOUSLY the previous reviews of this monument have been by those who do not understand the…read morehistorical significance of the monument and lack the intellectual capacity for such. I am reminded that I should not argue with them...as my father used to tell me, "Son, never argue with an idiot; he'll drag you down to his level and defeat you with experience." Therefore...I suggest you ignore those reviews that do nothing but belittle the experience. First - the boll weevil made its way into Texas in the early 1900's. By the 1920's it had already invaded ALL of the cotton growing areas in the USA - all the way up to Virginia. It totally devestated the crops in southern Alabama between 1914 and 1917. By 1919, when the monument was erected, Coffee Country (Enterprise) was heavy into peanuts. Ignorant historians (and revisionist historians) will try to make you think that the Boll Weevil Monument was erected because the people of Enterprise would not erect a statute to George Washington Carver because he has an African-American. Again - this is a revisionist historian point of view. I doubt the people of Enterprise were very interested in what was happening in Tuskegee while they were starving. And I SERIOUSLY doubt Carver showed up with peanuts in hand showing the people of Enterprise how to plant them... This historical inspiration of the Boll Weevil has been mentioned in many publications over the years. John Maxwell has written about this monument--as well as many other inspirational speakers and writers. Bottom line - if you DO NOT understand the historical significance of this monument, too bad. One day, maybe you will grow a brain and it will dawn on you! =)

    Ok - the five stars is for the cute historic district and the homage to the boll weevil in this…read moregreat area of Enterprise. We had a lot of fun with this! This is the centennial of the boll weevil celebration and should not be missed!
