Confirmed from Veterans 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.
Playground, kids' water park and trails in a family-friendly space.
What runners say about Veterans Memorial Park
“Clean park, lots of space, can walk your pets there, location for many events hosted by the city, and has a splash pad to play in the summer which is normally on from 1pm to 5pm.”
“Great place to have sprinklers my kids had so much fun the only negative point is theres just no shade wat so ever i wonder if you can bring your own tent to set up?”
Clean, loving, family oriented and a safe, warm environment for enjoying the morning, afternoon or evening. I especially love that there's a water park for the kids and a short walking trail for adults. Fun for all ages!
It's really cool you get a bunch of kids from the neighborhood they all love running in the water my kids have a blast there definitely recommend it, it's opened, the concrete is in great shape and it's pretty clean Park you also have the ice cream trucks pull up a few different times a day the kids will have a blast…
