The eagle statue stand between the American flag and the North Carolina State flag. The arboretum is very well kept you and definitely tell the town of Burlington puts in the finances into keeping their parks well kept and maintained. This is where I would come to take walk or just sit in the grass and relax and take it all in. I've considered moving to NC and if I decided to make that move Burlington will definitely be where I'll call home.

I visited here around 4 PM on a Saturday afternoon with my sons. This is my first time coming to…read morethis park. It is connected to and located behind a church, but is open to the public. You can access the playground by entering the Trails End Apartments. It's a pretty solid playground, honestly. One swing set has 4 swings and the other one, located on the complete opposite side of the playground, had 1 regular and 1 baby swing. There is also 2 play sets, one for older children and one for younger ones. One thing I really enjoy is the rock trail surrounding the playground. 10 laps = 1 mile, according to signage. Additionally, they call the trail a prayer walk. Each lap represents prayer for a different reason, which is amazing. I also love it because adults or adolescents can walk around it while children play. You pretty much can see every part of the playground no matter where you are on the trail. I did a little over a mile while I was there, according to my Apple Watch. I forgot to count the laps to see if it was accurate, lol. The only thing I dislike is one of the rules they have posted. Specifically, rule #4 says "Do not use the playground during worship services. (Join us inside instead!)". That bothers me because while I can see the intent, it's a missed opportunity. If people are playing on the playground during worship services, they may hear a word or a message from a speaker, or even be lead to the church by God or a spirit. Additionally, rule #3 says "Share the playground with all who wish to play". If I read rule #4, that may deter a non believer by not making them feel welcomed. But hey, that's just my opinion and thought process on it. You can't have partial inclusion ‍ Overall, I would return. Like I said, it's a solid playground. There is street parking and also about 40 parking spaces. They also have 2 benches as well. I do think there should be more as it is a solid size playground.

The park also includes a sand volleyball court and a very large picnic shelter that has 9 or so tables and two charcoal grills. I was hoping for a walking path but there is not one. There are restrooms and there is street parking available. [Review 13930 overall, 1252 of 2020, number 2573 in North Carolina.]

I liked the walking trail the most. The Clarence Smith Ball field is lighted. The picnic shelter is reservable. The pool is closed for the season which runs Memorial Day weekend through the middle of August. There's a cool looking slide too. Some of the picnic tables are in the shade and that was a nice rest for a bit to catch up on the Internet and figure out what's next in Asheboro.
