The bridge and the water with the large rocks is an amazing photo opp not to mention being fun to explore.

This park is dog friendly but they need to be leashed. There are a couple of baseball fields and a small playground area.

What it lacks in size, it makes up for in amenities: 7-Youth baseball/softball fields 2-Tennis courts (w/ Pickleball lines) 2-Football/lacrosse turf fields Batting cages Community building with kitchen Nature trail - .1 mile Paved walking trail - 1.3 miles Picnic pavilion Playground Restrooms There's always something going on at Midway Park, but there's plenty of parking to accommodate spectators. It's conveniently located right next to Midway Family Festival, a neighborhood retail center that includes 3-4 different restaurants, a cafe, a gym, and more. You can grab a snack while you watch a game or grab dinner after the game. Not the most accessible park, though. Making a left out of the park can be challenging during rush hour. There are no traffic lights. The park is fairly clean and well kept. I wish it had a dog park, but other than that, it's a neat little park!

Situated on 15 acres of pristine land it features a playground, 2 picnic pavilion and a duck pond. There is also a stage area for public performance. For more information https://cityofballground.com/parks-department/ The duck pond is especially charming being that the ducks are people friendly. Not sure if they allow you to feed them ....The geese here are quite a character. When I was here with my friend she accidentally said out loud that ducks are cuter than geese. Well one of them took to chasing her for a bit for her slip of the tongue....serves her right.... I've also used their restroom facilities a couple of times before when I was in the area. Very clean and very well maintained..... A great addition to this charming little town that I hope will remain small and quaint. 1277th review 3/18/2018 197th for 2018
