Reaves Park is a very large park in the Norman city limits. It is on the east side of OU, where the north and south ends of campus meet. It is west of the Jimmie Austin Golf Course.
The park has numerous recreational activities available, and holds the annual Medieval Fair the first weekend of May.
Restrooms are available April-October. Guests can reserve one of several pavilions for group events or family activities. On the west end of the park, near the Jenkins entrance, is the Saxon tot lot and the KidSpace Community built playground that resembles a large wooden fort.
South of these two playgrounds is the Cleveland County Veteran's Memorial. On the same drive, east of the playgrounds, is the Prairie Peace Path (Labyrinth), the ball fields, and basketball court.
