Bruno Canziani Park

PARK REVIEW

I really enjoyed this park. It is a new park in the middle of a really pretty neighborhood (12 acre park). The playgrounds are divided into 2 sections. The first section is for 2-5 year olds, and the second section is for 5-7 year olds. The two playgrounds are divided by a landscaped area. It is a very private and quiet playground. In addition to the playground equipment, there are also basketball hoops and a large soccer field.
