I really enjoy Woodward Park specially the Pickleball courts. It’s a nice family atmosphere towards sundown. Soccer players will come out. Basketball players will be on the basketball court and plenty of Pickleball going on. The crowd is very friendly.
Always clean. Always respected. Can be busy, but only EVER seen it crowded on Sunday evenings. There's always a full on game of soccer almost all Sunday afternoons. Basketball ball courts ALWAYS ready to just walk on. Would be *TOP NOTCH* if they installed lighting on the pickle ball courts!! You can even can play basketball easily with just a full moon!
Great courts - be aware, it’s usually windy, and there’s no shade resources around. Don’t forget to bring water 👍
Decent size park people are friendly and mind their own unless you step outta line. Karen (or even me if u wildin) might tell you about yourself
For the area it's a pretty decent Park I wish the town would do a little bit more for it the playground is okay field needs some serious work and they need parking
