With summer coming to a close, it’s time to get outside and soak up the sun. There are so many parks across the state where you can have some fun but this city park has something a little extra special. Your kids will love sliding down the giant hill of Concourse Park, and you’ll get a kick out of it too! Make plans to visit this super fun park before heading back into the school year.
