Confirmed from Shay 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.
Fun park for kids featuring a train-themed playground and a train ride.
What runners say about Shay Park
Nice ball park. Lots of room to run! No pets allowed, included picture of park rules and regulations. Playground for kids, tennis courts, soccer fields, fenced in grass area to let kids run. Also, large parking lot. Picnic areas for small groups. Fun for tournaments large or small. Public restrooms also.
Miniature train's that guests are able to ride for free around the park on the first and third Sat. during the summer (May to September) (donations are accepted and appreciate to help keep the train's running but not require) Great fun for the whole family even the adults are able to ride on them.
It's a good park! A little small for how busy it generally is but it's fun and clean. There is a mini train that runs during the summer that the kids can ride. It's a good time
Really nice park with a lot of play structures. It has swings and a run roller slide. My toddler didn’t want to leave!
