Confirmed from Miller J. Fields 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.
Park for family fun featuring a splash pad, baseball fields, a zipline and a play area for toddlers.

Awesome park. Area for little kids (crawlers to 2) and a play area for a bit bigger kids (5-7). Splash pad area for kids of all ages, several shaded shelters, several picnic tables. In addition to softball fields and lots of green space, and a bike trail / walking trail all the way around the park.

Great park for kids year round, but especially during summer with the splashpad. Great walking track too around the ball fields.
