“Keep it green! I grew up spending endless summer days playing in the sand and joining the impromptu big splash contests off the high dive. As a teenager I was a lifeguard and had the most memorable experience and life lessons ever. The water is actually spring fed and is much cleaner than most chlorine pools. It's an all natural organic version with Sandy beaches great for building castles. Love.”

“Our first 4th of July here. What a spectacular display of fireworks. Very impressive. The police and fire crews were everywhere to direct the crowd. It made us feel very safe and secure. Lovely park.”
