Kirk Park Description
Kirk Park’s main draw is the sports fields. The small play structure and swings are a perfect distraction for younger siblings during games. The play structure is relatively short making it best for young kids.
The play structure’s most unique feature is the log stack to climb up.
The play structure also has a rocky bed for climbing.
