This is a nice city park. I recently enrolled in Water Aerobics classes here and have to admit that the pool is small and the locker rooms are even smaller. Im used to the nice locker rooms with showers, changing stalls, bathroom stalls and mirrors at Ridge Park, but there is barely room for more than a few people to be in the tiny locker room at one time. While I mentioned the pool is small (only 3 lanes), the water aerobics classes are still a great workout and I would sign up again. I have not used the other park amenities, but have seen people playing basketball and running the small track.

Independence Park has one of the nicest summertime Farmers Markets in the city with many vendors not seen at other markets; always on the second and fourth Sundays of the month, June - October. If you like visiting old buildings around the city or just need a restroom, stop into the field house--which I imagine hasnt had any major renovation since the day it opened.

The new remodeled playground is great. There is a rope climbing structure, a large corkscrew slide, a rocking hammock-like swing that my son loves, zip-line style gliders, and much more. There are great offerings for bigger kids and little kids alike. On top of all this, there are baseball and soccer fields as well as a public gym and restrooms in the field house.

This place is lovely and the summer farmers market is small but excellent. Tons of options, samples galore and theres always some kind of music or activity, and just a general neighborhood bustle. People here are always friendly, and my dog absolutely loves going for walks here and running around! (On his leash ... though some folks let theirs off.)

The park has new equipment in the play ground, its really nice, plenty of benches to sit and read, or just relax, plus they have an indoor pool and very small not updated splash area for the kids. And OMG the food truck is incredibly delicious, with good prices!

This is a nice big park with a huge new playground. On a sunny weekend it gets a bit busy but our preschooler was fine, the bigger kids showed her the ropes and the other parents were friendly. Just wish they had more benches as those were constantly full.

We went there for my daughters toddler gymnastics. The course is very affordable and is about what your expect for a toddler class. The instructor is friendly and competent, the building is clean and well maintained

This park has swings, a rope web you can climb, loads of shade to sit under, a field, and water fountains. And most importanly, they have a mini-zip line type attraction at this park. Need I say more?
