My favorite park is Carter Caves State Park in Kentucky. I've taken my daughter there since she was little and we haven't been back in a while since we've been low on money, but it would be great to go there again with her and my husband. We haven't been out as a family in a while, but I will forever hold those memories and cherish them forever there.

My favorite park is Ashland Park in Ashland, Ky. It's so beautiful with all of it's waterfall ponds and places to walk and to sit and enjoy the nature. I've had many great memories there and I hope to keep going back there for as long as I can.

Boettler Park in Green, OH. Best park in the world. One of my favorite memories there is exchanging promise rings with my boyfriend.

Hershey park. It has everything for little kid to a grown up. The chocolate factory and the rides. I love going there and so does my family.

Parks are always family fun spots. I remember as a child my family would take me to CIty Park and I would run to the nearest and largest Oak Tree. We would climb on the tree, picnic, feed ducks, and swing on the swings. Fun for the entire family...for free! And the memories are priceless:)

One of my favorite local parks is Mill River. I like to walk the trails there. The foliage in the fall is beautiful. Swimming in the pond in the summer is great. I also enjoy playing tennis at the tennis courts.

I grew up in Niagara Falls and we would spend our summer walking around goat island and having picnics. It was great on the really hot days because the mist from the falls cooled you off when you walked down to it on the island

My favorite park is Palmer park in Detroit, Michigan. This park is in need of help on the tennis court as well as some better fencing. The City of Detroit unfortunately is on the edge of bankruptcy and unable to take care of several of the parks in the city. I know my park could use so cleaning up and lawn prep. I remember my mother taking me to Palmer park with my older sister and getting pictures taken of us there, I am now a first time mother of a Little boy and I would love to introduce him to my wonderful park.

I live in New Braunfels, Tx....so the park we have here is Landa Park, it's not a HUGE park but it isn't small either. lots to do there. you can walk around the whole park, playground for the kids and a swimming area for the kids too. But lots of memories for me when I was a kid. The park did replace the playground that was there when I was little......just, lots of memories....

My favorite park is simple and down the street from where I live with tons of woods surrounding it. My friends and we would have a blast swinging and exploring the woods! There was a woodchuck that we found and named TC and we watched him from a huge tree that laid across a stream. We found clay (at least that's what I think it was) in the bottom of the stream. We would be out there from the time we got home from school until we had to go inside for the night. We had soo much fun!

Colt State Park in Bristol, RI is my favorite park! It is right on the water and has beautiful views, access to the water, picnic spots, bike/walking trails and more. I went there as child with my parents and now I bring my children. It's the perfect spot to enjoy a nice day in Rhode Island!

As a kid, I was lucky enough to live right down the street from an award-winning park. The park had a 1.2 mile jogging path with various exercise stations along the path, two sand volleyball courts, four basketball courts, several tennis courts, a mini golf course, and 4 baseball diamonds. It wasn't until much later in life that I realized how lucky I was to have unlimited access to such a great park. Riding my bike around the jogging path was my favorite activity as a kid.

Yatesville Lake Park in Kentucky holds such wonderful family memories and ones I will cherish forever. Times with special friends and family, some of which are no longer with me. I will always treasure those memories and hold that special place close to my heart :)
