Riverside Park is maintained year-round. So gather up the extended family the fun ones anyway and make it a day-long field trip. Playgrounds are the only place in the whole wide world where your sole responsibility is to have as much fun as possible.

A large green space is also available to play kickball, soccer, football, or any other activity that your family enjoys.
