Confirmed from Kent Memorial Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Public park offering tennis courts and a playground, plus facilities for baseball.
What runners say about Kent Memorial Park
“The bathrooms are always clean and it is very well upkept by the Kent Commons.”
Nice ballfield along a suburban commercial strip of Kent. Easy access to highway 167 (less than a mile). The play area was well goomed. The bleachers and facility are not brand new, but the announcer box was open and the scoreboard and PA worked well. Lots of danger zone parking.
Great field and close parking right off the street! Dont park too close because foul balls are likely to hit a vehicle and even go into the street. Lots of bleacher seating and its shaded right behind home plate and the 3rd base side for a late afternoon evening game.
