We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Woodward Community Park yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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.
Neighborhood hub offering soccer fields, a walk/jog path with mile markers & a playground.
What runners say about Woodward Community Park
“Team parents are pleasant and seem like they clean up after themselves.”
My local park since 2016 that I totally love 💕 As of this year I now walk there and enjoy the exercise equipment, walking and running a lap around it 🙂🤗 Love the side with all the trees especially when fall and spring paint them so beautifully 😍 And a great basketball court section too!
This park is fun. The big slide is rock and roll kids only. It goes fast and has a sharp turn. There are lots of area to play all kids of ball or running games. The toy structure is huge. There is also a smaller structure for small children so collisions can be avoided when it gets busy. Huge picnic shelter too.
Great family place! Lots of tables, clean-"ish" bathrooms, something for everyone (basketball hoops, workout machines, wide side walks for running or walking dogs) and an all around great park that has free, fun events for the kids and soccer games (during soccer season) on Saturdays.
Huge play area and ground. Kids love this park they want to keep coming back to this one. Mike maker and exercise area around the park for running/walking.
