A large open sports park with ball fields, a skate park, tennis and plenty of grass for kites and running about. The paved paths and roads are cracked and uneven, so reviewers advise against skates and scooters. Shade is thin. Parking is ample but has one way in and out, which backs up at tournaments.
A small grassy park with play equipment set back a block from the sand — useful when the beach wind gets to be too much for little kids. There's a public restroom here, worth knowing when the beach ones are jammed on a summer weekend.

- Scott Rowden★★★★★
Expansive park with several ballfields, large but sparse dog park, and limited number of trees providing shade. NOTE: City council doesn't have the ability to solve cities financial issues - they're as creative as a dirt clod, so this park may fall victim to fiscal closure in near future. If all would avoid taxpayer supported lunches, they could probably come up with the spare change to keep facilities open.(Note: not one of the parks considered for closure is anywhere near the mayor and councils' neighborhoods).

This is a large park with athletic fields for baseball, and a large field for dogs to run around in (not a fully gated dog park, but you can let your dog off the leash if they wont run away). This is not my favorite park, but there is tons of green grass, some trees to sit under and enjoy the shade, and a few dogs to see here and there...not many. This is more of a place to get quiet time alone.
