Handicapped Accessible restrooms with a push button for the door. At least two or three drinking fountains. Lots of shade from trees, which I love. Benches and picnic tables throughout, some with BBQ pits. A blue building with rainbow painted doors directly in front of the parking lot. Signs advertising free meals for kids & movies in the park directly in front of the blue building. My family, dog, and I enjoyed this park, only issue was someone's dog was running loose no leash or owner, dog appears to live directly across the street from the park. Dog was not vicious, but I had to holler at it to make sure it stayed away from us and my dog. I notice a lot of loose dogs running about near parks here in Mobile, so this is not the first time I have encountered that at a local park. Just be cautious if you are there with pets or children.

This park is next to LeFlore High School. I did not see the restrooms or football field, it was dark, humid, overcast, and I got a tornado warning on my phone, so I left. Looks like a great place, though, I would of stayed longer were it not for the weather. Southern weather is always subject to change in Mobile, keep umbrellas, rain ponchos, and sweaters handy, weather changes from one hour to the next.

Springhill community facility center reputation has grown since 2021 in its customer service,…read morecleanliness and appearances. This was achieved by the Parks and Recreation management upon their decision to hiring of a female custodian Socorro Miranda in the beginning of the year 2021. Ms. Miranda self motivation , skills in her duties and her deep commitment and loyalty to her daily responsibilities, along with her hard charging commitment to the department to turn the Springhill Community Center that was on the chopping block for closure around. She brighten the usefulness of this facility within the community. Citizens from the community have returned and increased their patroness of this community center because of these important types of improvements and services. The seniors and summer camp teenagers programs that returned each year enjoyed the smile , compassion and the individual care Ms. Socorro Miranda demonstrated and provided beyond the scope of her daily duties consistently. Today, the official news was received that she is being transferred out of this facility by the end of this week. I am outraged that dedicated and loyal consistent employee are involuntarily moved and yet those employees whom performances and commitments that are less desirable still remain in place. We the taxpayers want Ms. Miranda to remain in her position at Springhill Recreation Center. I seriously doubt the replacement replacing Ms.Miranda will resume the duties again of looking out for all the young and seniors citizens patronizing the center and keeplong the high quality maintenance level of cleanliness and appearance within the facility, we as the taxpayers have come to appreciate and enjoyed under Ms. Miranda watch to continue. The department decision to remove the strongest hardworking employee from Springhill Recreation Center that keep the place lively , healthy and clean Is the biggest error they can make. Keep this in mind, eighty percent of keeping a facility such as this in good standing comes from how the facility individual staff treat, cares and show compassion to its citizens. Good luck Springhill, and Parks Recreation management finding another employee with such dedication to fill her shoes will be far in between to find.
