Generally speaking, there are two distinct types of city
parks-the recreational park and the picnicking park. Should
you decide to make a picnic out of your park visit, you should
be aware of what facilities the park offers, such as does it
have outdoor grills for the barbeque and picnic tables to save
the food from the ants.
What follows is a brief summary of some parks and
recreational facilities in the area. The location of the parks is
shown on the map on page 12.
Buhr Park-this versatile recreation area has picnic
tables, grills, volleyball, tennis courts, and an outdoor
swimming pool. Likeit's cousins, Veterans and Fuller parks,
Phr park has lighted tennis courts which are open, free of
charge.
Burns Park-a recreational park which has five tennis
courts, a basketball court, and two baseball diamonds
(though one is quite small). Bordering the park is a school
playground where you can relive your younger days on the
jungle jim.
