Playground
Smith (Joseph Higgins) Park - Playground
- Description
- Smith Park features a wonderful playground and water spray feature on the eastern side of the park. There is a large and sprawling play structure, another structure for younger children, a huge set of swings, and a small water spray feature. The equipment is somewhat dated but generally well maintained with a variety of slides and climbing features. The amenities are also solid: benches and picnic tables, a soft rubber play surface, a small water spray feature, access to bathrooms via the fieldhouse off Grand Ave, and some decent shade make this a great place to spend a day. Highly recommend.
