This past week was my first time going to music in the park and I was totally skeptical. "Seattle Women's Steel Pan Project" was performing at this park that I had never heard of and I wasn't anxious to make time to go. My wife dragged me along and I am SO glad she did! The band was actually incredible. Multiple generations, multiple cultural, and all women. Collectively the dozen or so musicians spoke 5 different languages! The music they made sounded like something you hear on the radio, not in person. The park was HUGE! There was a private parking lot, but also plenty of street parking all around. The lawn went on forever and was perfectly green and freshly mowed. Spread out throughout the lawn were hundreds of people laying out on picnic blankets, gathered to enjoy the music. Behind the stage was a big playground, two tennis courts, and an interactive game for kids that involves pressing lights as they lit up at the end of metal tubes. I am anxious to get to the park again on a day when the crowd isn't there so I can see what the park is really about.

Basketball courts, baseball/soccer ball field, outdoor grills, benches next to them and shady areas.

Such a cute little gem and has potential to be great if the King County invested in remodeling or upkeep this park. Pretty clean as far as we could see. No parking though, just street parking. Would come back, pretty neat.

There is an extensive senior program, a variety of classes for all ages, a gym and plenty of services. I love going to the toddler gym which starting in September runs Mon, Wed, and Fri and costs $2 for the first child and $1 for each additional child. There are several age appropriate play structures outside in their beautifully kept grounds. And to top it all off, a stunning botanical garden that is open to the public including wedding rentals and has a fantastic fund raising garden show and plant sale in August (this year featured Cisco Morris!) . This is just such a find and is worth the drive because it's just such a great community center.

I will say that the parking lot is rather small and it can be very challenging to find any parking during the summer. When I arrived on this particular day, there was literally a line out to the road with vehicles trying to find parking. It can get pretty cut throat, too. The park itself is generously sized, in the splash pad has a lot of unique features that my kids really enjoyed. My favorite part is that they had features for small children as well as larger children. Usually when I go to other splash pads it smells funky or like chlorine. But this location smelled fresh and seemed to have been upkept recently. Western Washington is a notorious area for high amounts of trafficking, so I always have to keep an eye out wherever we go. But thankfully, this area seemed pretty safe so we will definitely be back next summer for more playtime.
