The largest and probably the oldest park in the city, Polson Park has lots to offer, including lawn bowling and mega chess. There is lots of manicured lawn, many large and mature trees for shade and several gardens sprinkled about. As well, the Vernon Science Centre is part of the park.

One of the major attractions is the lawn bowling court, home of the Vernon Lawn Bowling Club. It is a large, well manicured court with a very nice club house. This club will celebrate its 98th birthday this year (2015), which likely makes it one of the oldest lawn bowling clubs in the interior. Too bad, no one was bowling when we visited.
