This park is part of your history if you spent much time in Genessee County.
Family reunions, picnics, senior skip day, class reunion picnics, birthday parties, and what I observed more recently was graduation celebrations.
Well heck, why not?
This place is lush. Mature landscape, recently added bike paths, a BMX track that someone I know personally had voluntarily helped maintain. I hear this part of the park gets lots of attention.
Since I don't live in this area and the habitat is quite different from where I call home I feel like I'm in a whole new place from what I remember.
What is missing is the original pieces on the playground.
Seriously, where is the thing that you sit on and someone pushes it in circles until you feel like you're gonna fly off because of the centrifugal force.
And the swings?
Why were those things removed.
Was interesting to learn some of the history of how this place came to be.
Huge Sugar Maples and Oak trees, wild Strawberries, crazy amounts of lush Moss, Plantain, and other various cover that blanket the ground under that canopy.
Beautiful escape from the crazy that is life.
A place to tune out and get grounded. Literally.
Just take off your shoes.
MI residents, you're lucky to have this park.
Treat it well. read more
