    Dawn Denning said:  Quaker Park offers water features galore for your kiddos to get soaked on a hot summer day! You can rest and watch on nearby benches and sheltered seating while they splash and play the afternoon away. Adjacent to the pad is a playground with soft cushioning for softer landings and a swing hammock that can hold a few kiddos. There is even a separate area for kids 6-24 months old!

    West Park was reimagined with a brand new playground and splash pad in 2022, and the centerpiece is an enormous tube slide accessed from a climbing tower.

    Jaclyn Keifer said:  West park in Carmel Indiana rests on 120 acres and the play space is newer. In the front of the park is a pond with a boardwalk. There are multiple trails one of which zigzags up the hill which is perfect for bikes and is paved for strollers. There is a ton of open space for frisbees and the trails also lead to a wooded/marsh space that my kids love throughout the year. All of the trails are stroller friendly.

Home to numerous baseball, soccer and softball fields, and volleyball courts, your kiddos can take a break from sports to cool off in the water features. To start the water up, simply hit the blue button in the center for the water to start spraying. While you are there, be sure to check out the lakes, hiking trails and playground in the park.
