There’s a weird little park off oak grove just south of cherry. There’s a sign for it, but doesn’t appear to be any parking and it’s behind residential houses. That might be a good one to look into.

Looks like that’s George Washing Carver Park. The one the u/robzilla71173 mentioned.

That sounds like Lurvey. Another often overlooked park.

The one with the frisbee golf course?

Not the one behind the community center that he frisbee golf. This one is further north just before cherry street. I am not sure what’s back there because I’ve always been too chicken to walk behind the houses lol. I looked it up and it’s called Lurvey park.

If I'm remembering right that's our smallest area city park. I've also always felt weird walking back there so I've never been either.

Check out Ooley park while you’re over here. Just off Oak Grove, two swing sets, a sinkhole, and regularly floods. It’s a doozy! 🤓

Is that the one just before cherry??

So if you go east on Cherry from glenstone, turn right on oak grove and then take the first left. It’s one house down basically

Yep! I’ve always wondered if anyone actually used that park 🤣 I drive by it everyday on my way home from work and haven’t ever seen a soul there
