Confirmed from S.T. Morrison 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.
Community park with an aquatic center, fishing pond, volleyball & tennis courts & playground.

Clean park. Has a pond and ducks walking around. Lots of trees. Love this park.This park also has Farmers market on Monday evenings. Nice market and a selection of goods. Next to the city pool. Beautiful area. The farmers market has fresh veggies and fruits, eggs, meats, jams, baked goods and crafts.
Nice park for the kids! Plenty of space, room for parents and grandparents to sit. Options for shade too. Has a swimming pool, walking trail and a tennis court. Parking is a bit of a walk to the park, not too bad though.
Very fun places to let the kids burn off some extra energy. It's nice and shaded most of the time. They have a water fountain nearby. The only downside is there's not a restroom in the general area nearby.
