    Basketball player statues located inside front entrance to the left
    Phyllis B.

    It was our 1st time visiting Bloomington, IN. My spouse is a HUGE Tarheel fan, so he purchased tickets for us to see the ladies' game against Indiana Hoosiers on Dec. 1, 2022. Ironically, December 1, 2021, marked the day we saw our 1st live Tarheel men game in North Carolina. The Simon stadium was huge on the outside and spacious inside. Staff were friendly along with the locals. They told me where the concession stands were, even joked about us wearing the wrong colors (team). I was in extreme awe of the statues and art displayed, so I had to take pics for the lifetime memories. We even had the best seats in the house since we arrived very early.

    Today, I am currently attending and event I IU that is supposed to be primarily about Martin Luther King. The first thing I see is videos that has nothing to do with Martin Luther King.

    What more can be said about Assembly Hall. Five banners, legendary coaches and players, and a fantastic Hoosier Hysteria 2015 event!

    Where's the parking?

    This park is amazing. It is a gem located in Bloomington. It is a Rails to Trails pedestrian…read morethoroughfare and was once an old rail switchyard. It spans 65 acres and was opened in 2019. By the looks of it, I though that it was opened more recently. This park has everything you want in a park and much more. This is a modern park and I was really felling it. There are two decent sized parking lots for you to park your vehicle. What amenity that brought you to the park will determine the lot that you will use. The park features a dog park with separate areas for large and small dogs. There is seating for pooch owners to sit in each area, as well as lots of green space and a few obstacles for the pups to play. There are a few picnic tables in between the two dog areas. The park also has a ton bright green picnic tables in a plaza area just off of one of the parking lots and a very nice shelter with picnic tables under it, a fireplace and a grill. This area is also where you will find the restroom facility in this area. There is also a low-key splash pad in this area, but it was shut down for the season during my November visit. This park is also home to an awesome outdoor amphitheater with lawn seating. It looks pretty impressive. There is also an 11,000 square foot pavilion with overhead doors, making it an indoor/outdoor event space. Both spots are available for rent and are prime spots to host your next event. They are used to host special events such as 5K runs, farmer's markets, and You will also find a skate park that could easily be a stand alone park itself. It is a concrete park with bowls, rails, and a snake run. Graffiti, tags and stickers are prohibited in the skate park area, but you will find some nice tags just outside of it. The park's playground is first class. It is a huge area on a mud-free rubber/artificial grass surface. There are benches, walls and glider swings for caregivers to sit while their littles play. The area's equipment includes saucer swings, tunnels, a rock climbing wall, slides, some traditional swings, wall net climbers, a pyramid net climber, and xylophones. The equipment is very modern and looks relatively new. On the other end of the park is where you will find a very nice full basketball court, a bocce ball court, and 4 pickle ball courts. There is a large patch of green space on this side of the park as well that is suitable for picnic, playing catch, or tossing a frisbee. A Bloomington police also has a station at this entrance to the park. Even though their is a police presence on site, the park contracts with a security company to assist with park patrols and safety. The highlight of this side of the park though is the outdoor fitness area. It is a circular area that has equipment that includes a chest press machine, a shoulder press machine, a strider, a dip machine, sit up bench and pull-up bar. In the shadow of the workout area is a community gardens, which feature 39-foot by eight-foot raised garden beds that are available for rent. A 3.1 mile trail, the B-Line Trail, passes directly through the park. The Trail is nicely paved, completely accessible and well illuminated with LED lighting. If 3.1 miles is not enough for you, it connects to the Bloomington Rail Trail, thus adding 2 more miles. This is a nice park that has everything you could ask for. It is well maintained. I will not that there are a few urban campgrounds on the outskirts of the park and you will find transients sleeping on park benches and using the restroom there, but they are not aggressive and just keep to theirselves. I highly recommend checking this park out. You can easily spend a half day here.

It is very spacious park spanning almost 35 acres and dates back to 1957. The park has tons of parking available spread between 3 lots. There is also parking available near the pool. The playground features 2 parks. The first park is for 5 to 12 year olds and feature a medium sized jungle gym with bridges, tunnels and slides. There is also a sand digger and a bank of traditional/toddler swings. You will find benches and other spots for caregivers to sit. The equipment is a bit dated, but still in fair shape. There is great news though, the playground is scheduled to be reimagined next year. You will find a fair shelter just off of that playground with picnic tables under it and a grill just outside of it. The other playground area is for smaller kids and is fenced in to keep the little ones from running off. There is a cement dinosaur bench that caregivers and sit, along with a bunch of traditional benches. There is also some picnic tables under a canopy. The equipment in this area include a bank of traditional/toddler swings, and another medium jungle gym with tunnels, bridges, canopies and slides. Just like the older kid playground area, this equipment is a bit "seasoned", but still serviceable. The park is home to a nice paved 1/4 mile walking trail, Streamside Trail, that is wheelchair-accessible trail and bisects the park along the south side of Bryan Park Creek. Along the trail, you will find an outdoor fitness area with a bunch a very nice equipment such as a balance beam, chest press, incline sit up board, monkey bars, and dip bars. It is very nice and looks relatively new. I really liked the park's 2 full basketball courts . It was very nice and in great shape. The tennis courts are pretty good too. Other park amenities include a restroom facility, two multi-use fields with backstops, a horseshoe pit, and a ton of green space. You will not find a shortage of green space here, including the multi-use fields. It is suitable for pretty much any field activity including football, playing catch, soccer, a picnic or flying a kite. Along the Park's grounds is another shelter with picnic shelters with tables under it and a grill outside of it and some benches. If that was not enough, the park is co-located with an aquatic center. Being that i visited the park in November though, the Center was closed for the season. The park is well maintained and you can easily spend at least a half of a day or more here. I highly recommend checking out the park. It may be a bit outdated, but upgrades are on the way and the city is investing a lot of money into this park.

    This is a great neighborhood park for the kids. There are several playgrounds available.read more

It's right off a bike trail which is being expanded all the way to Rohrer Road in 2022. There is a basketball court where I see kids playing all the time and two tennis courts I have used a few times, and then a really nice tennis backboard area for single play practice. Jackson Creek runs right along it and if you follow the bike path, it will take you over to Childs Elementary school and on towards downtown Bloomington. The park gets a lot of traffic, because it's a great little spot, but I've never seen it crowded. There aren't any public bathrooms, but if you follow the bike trail up to Olcott Park, there are some up there, as as well as more parking. Olcott is larger and has more parking area, but there are six or seven spots next to the tennis courts here as well. And one shelter for outside gatherings and barbecues.

The SRSC doesn't even come close, but eh it works. It's like a 24 hour fitness - good enough. It features: *Multiple strength & cardio areas - I typically go to the strength area all the way at the end of the hall, past the basketball/volleyballs. That's where they have 6 or 7 racks + weight. Warning: clean off the bars before you use them - they're filthy. They have an amazing amount of treadmills (even curved treadmills!), rowers and stair steppers. *Group exercise/yoga & Pilates studio - I've taken a Zumba class here and tried to take a yoga class (addt'l $8 punch card needed!) They're just okay, but hey it's cheap. *Seven racquetball/wallyball courts, two squash courts, table tennis, & badminton *Five basketball/volleyball courts - Haven't played basketball or volleyball, but I've played intramural kickball on these courts. They'll just partition off a section of intramural sports. *The Counsilman/Billingsley Aquatic Center (CBAC) Olympic-sized pool/diving well - Swam here once. Not much to say except ask the lifeguards which lanes you can swim in. They'll often have swim meets at this pool, so parking can get a little crowded. *Indoor walking/jogging/running track - this runs right over the basketball/volleyball courts. *Futsal Court TON OF undergrads though so I typically go right when it opens in the AM (6am on weekdays/8 am on weekends).
