There are three outdoor bocce courts near the southeast end of Memorial Park in Johnston, Rhode Island. The trio of side-by-side courts runs mainly north-south and has a natural grass base which appeared in need of grooming and grading. The rink walls are made from wood boards. Pairs of blue park benches are split on the east and west boundaries and a single lamppost is installed between each set. A cast metal plaque at the north side reads:
