They attend group training once a week, but if it were up to them they'd love to be there every day if they could. As a homeschooling family, I love that group training gets them rubbing shoulders with other kids and allows them to get some "formal" teaching from someone other than mom and dad. Bonus: our charter school allow us to pay for training using school vouchers. All the couches are really great - they know how to work with kids, how to push them, yet encourage them, and they're just all really easy-going and fun to be around. I love that my kids leave class sweaty, with flushed cheeks, and sore muscles... Proves that they're engaged the whole time and it's not just an hour of babysitting I'm dropping them off for. I love that.

I came here for the first time to celebrate my friend's child's 2nd birthday. She had reserved gated pool area through the city and we had it all to ourselves. The pool was quite nice, with a big sort of water tower/fountain that kept the children thoroughly entertained. We ran out of time, however, and had to move the party outside of the pool itself. The park was a little rundown in this area. I'm sad to say that if I don't feel my kid can run around barefoot on the grass safely, it's not an optimal park in my book. I think what the place needs is a little TLC, particularly in the grass and bathrooms area. Other than that it would be a place I would happily visit if I lived in the neighborhood!

Just as with furry children, human ones also have tons of energy that must be let out. So instead of having them cooped up, I'd will myself to take them to the park even when I'm bone tired after a long week of work. William Land Park is THE best place to help kids burn off energy so they can simmer down and sleep well after they have all the fun. It's really not a bad thing, I don't want to sound like I'm begrudged to take my kids out to play, but you know how sometimes you just want to veg out at home after work and esp on weekends? Yup. But my wife's always right that it's better to just suck it up and take the littles out and let me run wild than to fight the inevitable and try to keep them occupied at home. So we make the trek and we're never disappointed, even when parking can be challenging (hint: don't go at peak times on the weekend, esp Saturday mid morning to early afternoon). With all that said, WLP is really a great place. It's huge, first of all, with a big free playground on the North West side of the park, then of course there's the Sacramento Zoo which is just the most iconic place in Land Park. Then for littles there's Fairy Tale Town which was really a hit with my kids when they were younger. And when they got older and wanted more excitement, Funderland was the place to be for several years with all the roller coaster and other amusement park rides that were good enough for their age when they still got the thrill of being up and down and thrown around on a coaster or a spinning tea cup or a rocking pirate ship. And it helps that both places are pretty affordable for a fun day out. What's impressive about Land Park though, is that there's something for everyone in this 166.5 acres regional park. I looked up some stats and it features 23 picnic areas, 2 softball fields, 1 lighted Little League field, 3 baseball fields, 2 bantam soccer fields, 1 full-sized soccer field, 1 basketball court, adventure play area (the free playground), tot play area with free wading pool (in the same area as the playground), an indoor community facility, several restrooms, several ponds, a 3.4 mile jogging trail, the Ampitheater, fee-based pony rides, and 5 garden areas including the WPA Rock Garden, 3 groves, 2 parking lots, the well loved Golf course, the Sac Zoo which my kids really loved as kids, Fairytale Town and Funderland as mentioned above. In fact, for awhile I was playing volleyball here every Saturday, it must've been a couple of years from spring through fall and even over the winter if the weather was good and the grass wasn't soggy/ground wasn't muddy from rain. I had a great time playing vball with young'uns half my age as well as those who were quite a few years older than me and yet were so fit they literally kept me on my toes. There were definitely some talented folks on the vball courts and it was all volunteer organized and free to join and play. I might have to go back to it before I'm totally out of commission. All in all, William Land Park is very unique and truly is one of Sacramento's most historic and special places. We drive by often, but don't go there enough, and really need to get out and get some fresh air and exercise on the beautiful grounds of this local gem.

I really liked getting that feedback after each shot and it seems like it would make for much more productive training sessions compared to just regular shooting.

The Sacramento River Bike/Walk Trail used to start here but they have since changed the trail name to the Dan Gorfain Trail (at least that part of the trail at the Bill Conlin Youth Sports Complex is named this). This place is always clean and there's always someone using the field. The field is nicely lit! I love this trail because it loops around to a trail along the Sacramento River and ends at Garcia Bend Park. If you run a little extra to the beginning of the park, it's a good 5k run! Then if you run back to the Bill Conlin Youth Sports Complex, it's a nice 10k! The trail is really flat and all concrete but has great views of the river! It's a nice work out and there are always people walking or biking. It has some shade but the whole way is not all shaded. Overall this is one of my favorite long running routes in Sacramento!

Creative Designs: The creativity here is next level. The kids absolutely loved exploring the castle and the ship structures--it really sparked their imagination and kept them busy for a long time. Right next to the playground is a great duck pond. It was a huge hit with the kids and provided a nice, scenic break from the climbing and sliding. Even late in the day, the park felt welcoming and well-maintained. It's a perfect destination for a family outing where the kids can safely burn off some energy.
