Provide FeedbackKennedy Park, located at the corner of Olive St. and Westmoor St., includes the Kennedy Water Playground, a public restroom, walking trails, baseball diamond, basketball courts, playground and open play areas. This zero-entry water playground is geared for toddlers through elementary aged children. 18 inches at it’s deepest point, it’s perfect for children to come play in the water.

Dogs are not permitted at Kennedy Water Playground during the summer season. However, Drool in the Pool will take place on the closing day of Kennedy Water Playground.

Basketball Court & Playground completed
A full court basketball court and a modern playground were installed at Kennedy Park in Summer 2016. The playground features a 360-degree playable design allowing kids to use every inch of the Explorer Dome. The Rotary Club assisted in finishing the basketball courts after a neighborhood resident approached the Rotary Club seeking assistance with the project. A new pavillion is also planned.
Park Amenities conceptual
