Summer is in full swing at Northside Park! ☀️ Whether you’re racing down the playground slide, jogging the scenic paths, fishing from the pier, biking the trails, enjoying a picnic on the lawn, taking a relaxing stroll, or simply having a quiet seat looking out over the pond, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
Best known for Sundaes in the Park on Sunday evenings each summer and the spectacular Winterfest of Lights during the holiday season, Northside Park has so much more to offer year-round. Kids will love the expansive playground, packed with climbing structures, slides, and plenty of space to explore, while nearby covered picnic tables provide a welcome break from the sun. The bathrooms (always important no matter what your age!) are nearby too.
The park’s many paved paths are perfect for walking, jogging, biking, or roller skating, whether you’re out for exercise or a leisurely outing with family and friends. Cast a line from the long fishing pier, or let the kids take a walk along it, quite the thrill for the younger ones. Perhaps you and your team will head to the open fields for a game or practice session. And if relaxing is more your style, you’ll find plenty of benches (although there’s no reason not to bring your own chairs) where you can sit back, enjoy the waterfront views, and simply take in the peaceful surroundings.
No matter how you like to enjoy the outdoors, Northside Park offers plenty to do—or the perfect spot to do nothing at all.
