I enjoy visiting the Parks!! I would Love if the City Would make routine Sanitizing Sprayers who came periodically and sprayed equipment and benches that would really benefit our Pandemic Safety Standards..

Lots of shade, water toys, but 7 year olds were there without parents fighting most of the evening. Other adults and older children kept having to break it up and we had to watch our little ones closely because the kids kept fighting by where everyone else was playing in the water. Also, someone drove their car up on the grass.

Its how you just get out there and use the public places be a blessing to the community and respect others and its all good my wife and I took our grandson to a birthday party here today and we enjoyed the little water park to beat the 99 degree temperature.....we also found out that the community pool is very nice and clean with life guards....AND ITS OPEN EVERY DAY ON THE SUMMER FROM 1PM TO 4PM ....FOR ONLY A DOLLAR......WE ARE GOING TODAY RIGHT AFTER CHURCH

During the day its a decent park. After dark a decent park turns into a drug ridden homeless nightmare.

The area is very unsafe. If you go during the day time it is calmer.

I want to make this review perfectly understandable. My rating is for the new BB Courts. They did an amazing job of renovating them. Thank you. Hopefully the actual park can be cleaned up. Everytime I go there which isnt as often as Id like to only bc I see dope bags all over the grass.

Review №34

Thats great that they have to playgrounds for children to play with other children their own age what I really dislike the was that people just leave their mess everywhere and there were adults playing in the kids playground as if it was for them insecurities with a little tighter this place would be great but we cant do everything for everyone all the time right..

Jefferson park memories date back to the 2000. I grow up next to this park. Hitting back flips off the swing. We use to connect somebody to two swings. Then we would swing them with someone on top. The restrooms are still poorly matienced.

Very nice park, spray park and playground are excellent. Only downsides are how crowded it is, and not a great place to be after dark. Also, lets just say it isnt very ethnically diverse... not many Caucasians
