Patrina MuldrowI have been to park several times with my grands when I visited from Columbia SC and we love it. Looking for a summer camp or just more activities for the kids. When I looked though your photos and noticed the majority of them are of Timrod Park but I have been going there since I was a child. Love both Parks but please do your own promotions for your Park so we are still interested. Thank you for having a wonderful place for the people of my hometown Flotown.

Crystal CarterCool place! The first one I’ve taken my grand daughter to and she’s had fun! Other than when it’s really hot outside there really no shade! However, they have really cool stuff for my 7 year old grand daughter!

Cyndi MuekschWe had a good time at the lights on trick or treat. It's just sad that several of the tables were empty as if people just didn't show up. In my opinion that shows lack of support. I understand that emergencies arise, but that many? Hmmm. Then several of the tables had run out of candy by the time we got there. We hadn't gotten there too late, but we had to stand in line for about 45 minutes. Kids can't maintain attention for that long. They begin to act up and then parents get upset and take it out on their child and then the child acts up even more. So standing in line was painful. But overall it was good and we will continue to attend. We support to athletics since my child plays sports.
