Parks & Nature

Wright Park is an Arboretum, with great old trees from around the world. There is also a Conservatory in an old victorian greenhouse. There's a splash fountain and swings for kids, a duck pond, picnic tables, restrooms, basketball court, and plenty of nice walking trails. I love this park!
