Confirmed from Shawn B. Silvera 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.

What runners say about Shawn B. Silvera Memorial Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (15 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

Great park, but hard to find. This is a really well-appointed park with a large playground (suggested age range 5-12), swings, basketball half-court, horseshoe pits, and picnic tables under a fabric awning.

★★★★★ — Helen , Jul 2021

It is a clean, well maintained park with a nice variety of equipment. It is a little tucked back from the road, but you can park in the street and walk in. The neighbors are used to the parked cars. Just be sure to be respectful of everyones yard.

★★★★★ — Matt , Aug 2021
