This "pocket Park," as I call them, is located on the corner next to the firehouse. It looks as if they had some green space left over after building the new firehouse and decided to make a park to honor veterans and volunteers.
The park is very small, contain one picnic table, one permanent park bench, and one dedicate bench (inside the gazebo) a memorial to Veterans & Volunteers, what looks like tractor hubs painted by the girls scouts, and in a big circle the flags of all the branches of the military of the United States, and the fire department.
