the most notable thing about this park is that the Girl Scout Council offices for Duncan are located in the very middle of it.
The park takes up the bulk of a large city-block, but it is essentially green space with lots of trees. The only playground equipment are some baby swings and one of those playground-type merry-go-rounds.
The park is in a residential area, but appears to be little used. We stopped by mid-day Sunday and saw no one even heading in its direction. It was clean, but somehow had an abandoned feeling to it.
According to the sign, the park was funded by the US Department of the Interior.
