6 Ideas for Family Fun at Madison Park

1. Let the kids Play on the Playground. The playground has been recently replaced with colorful and creative equipment that will challenge even the bigger kids. Its conveniently located next to the picnic shelter so parents can rest in the shade and still see the kids.
2. Pack a Picnic. The set up makes this a perfect lunch-and-play park.
3. Play a Game of Horse on the basketball court.
4. Bring a playground ball to play kickball on the softball field. Note that the City intends to remove this field eventually.
5. Stroll along the paved walkway. It is only 0.3 miles, so not too far for even the smallest walker.
6. Ice Skate in the Winter. The pleasure rink is also slated to be removed per the 2018 park plan but is still maintained as of 2022.
