About

A lakeside park with a short walking trail that loops around a peaceful lake, plus a canoe and kayak launch for kids who want to get on the water. The trail offers shade and lake views, though reviewers mention it can get muddy and needs better maintenance. Good for kids who enjoy nature walks, fishing, or paddling with parents. The park is small enough for shorter attention spans but offers a nice outdoor break. Limited parking means it's best for quick visits rather than big family gatherings.

The Police Department and its officers work hard to serve and protect the community. Here you can find helpful information about their initiatives, divisions, and more

    I'd love to tell you more about Camp Gardens, but honestly, the information I have is pretty bare-bones — I can see it's a program run through the Parks and Recreation Department that's open to everyone from toddlers through adults, runs in the mornings throughout the week, and it's completely free. The website mentions it's back and running at the newly renovated Burns Road Community Center, which is exciting! That said, I don't have the actual details about what kids actually *do* in the program — like whether it's gardening, nature exploration, crafts, or something else — so you'd really want to reach out to the Parks and Rec office directly to find out what a typical day looks like and whether it's the right fit for your family.

    Lake Catherine Lakeside Park offers a bunch of different programs and events throughout the week that are totally free for the whole family. Whether you've got a toddler, a school-age kid, a teenager, or you want to do something yourself, there's something happening here pretty much every day, with lots of morning options to choose from. The newly renovated Burns Road Community Center is where a lot of these programs run, so it's a really nice, updated space for activities like athletics, aquatics, camps, arts, tennis, pickleball, and special events. Since everything is free and they've got programs for literally everyone from little ones to adults, it's a great way to try something new without worrying about the cost.
