Brownie Park - 805 Cherry Parkway
This park was updated with a KCCI Project Mainstreet Grant. A white picket fence and arbor greet you as you begin the trail into the park. It leads to a butterfly body garden right in the center of the trail, with the brightly colored floral wings on either side of the trail completing the butterfly design. A wooden porch-style swing hanging from a matching arbor along with picnic tables makes this a great retreat for a small family picnic or a little get away. There are no restrooms at this park, but enjoy a leisure walk over to the library for facilities and parking.
