In downtown Upland, there is a well kept park that is filled with historical information and…read moreobjects from the days when the railroads made and broke towns. Upland was believed to be the highest point between Chicago and Columbus so a depot was erected here. The park has a curved wall that has plaques with information about Upland. There is also a gazebo on the west end, a caboose in the middle, and a wooden play train large enough for smaller kids to play in. Unfortunately, the depot and caboose don't allow visitors to go inside. That would be cool if they could be restored and allow tours at certain times. Review #2550

On my day of exploring Grant County, my first stop was in Gas City to check out their local park…read morewhich is also known as "Eugene Beaner Linn Memorial Park". So glad I did! It was one of the nicest parks I found all day! The park serves as a spot for everyone. There is a pond as well as having the river run by the west side of the park. There are baseball fields. There is a really nice playground with plenty of parking, shade, restrooms, and a series of swings that are fully accessible for kids with physical challenges. There is an amphitheater on the hill for entertainment. All in all, it is a really nice park for a town of about 6000 people. Review #2234

It also has a gazebo and a covered shelter house that is frequently rented. There is also a 6' basketball goal to let smaller kids play while the full court basketball area is used by older/more serious players. The park is well kept and has a mulch base for the playground. The park's elevated height helps keep it drier than a lot of flat parks after rains. Street parking is the only option for this location. Review #2559

The town of Fairmount only has one playground-park, so it's a good thing they made it so nice! The…read morenearly 13 acre park is filled with mature trees and a winding paved walking trail that traverses the green space between the two baseball fields on the north and south ends. In the middle, there are some shelters including a large pavilion with the James Dean Memorial Stage. There is also a nice playground with a special section fenced off for physically challenged children which has a swing that a wheel chair can roll up onto. There is also an elevated sandbox that allows the kids to access from their chairs. Overall, a nice park that is large enough to host a large number of visitors. Review #2562

It's nice to see the city add a bit of diversity to the type of park it has available. While most…read moreof the city parks are standard playground type places, this one appeals with fitness, nature, and a dog (bark) park. On the south end of West Street, there is a baseball park next to the parking lot. When there isn't a game, that leaves lots of spaces for visitors to the other parts of the park. The Bark Park is located back from the parking lot in a shaded area cleared for the dogs to play without overheating. The Wilderness Park consists of a shelter, restrooms, and two trails: One for fitness with work stations to exercise; and a nature trail that goes for about 1.5 miles through the woods. Unfortunately, all the heavy rains have left the trail quite muddy and without a more artificial base for walking, I was unable to travel far if I wanted to keep from getting mud all over. Still, it may be a nice get away once the drier days of summer come along. Yes, it is nice to see a park dedicated to more adult endeavors since there seems to be plenty of places for kids to go.

Highland Park is a huge community park in Kokomo with lots of green space, recreational spaces and…read morea historic covered bridge. What I like best about the park are the mature trees that provide lots of shade. Some of the trees are over 400 years old. There is a huge colorful playground with climbing structures, swings and slides. The base is a mix of mulch and soft matting. Benches line the area for parents to sit and watch kids . (The equipment could use a good cleaning from the trees.) There are two ball diamonds with bleachers within the park. A beautiful stream that meanders through the park attracts fisherman. Tree-covered picnic areas are scattered along the creek. The Vermont Covered Bridge spans the creek and is open to pedestrian traffic. There are restroom facilities near the playground. There are several parking areas throughout the park and you can drive along the creek. Highland Park is a great place to bring the family.

There is parking right next to these attractions and easy access for those who need it. They were both behind glass so the glare made it hard to see both, but they were amusing. Right next to the display was a playground suitable for all ages. The slide is a bit high, and it seemed old, but in good condition. There are also covered picnic tables in the area. Down the ways a bit in the park is a red covered bridge that was fun to walk through and take some photos with. Lastly, there is a large pavilion stage area what was having an orchestra concert, free to attend, and the audience was partially shaded with some picnic tables in the back as well.
