Jackson Park located in front of the Municipal Building on First Street, features the gazebo, which is available for rent for weddings, etc., fountain, benches, volleyball. Bordered on three sides by sidewalks, the park is a popular walking area, it is also used for many special events and festivals, such as Depot Days and the Summer Park Concert Series. Magill Park located near the Magill Village Apartments, features three tennis courts, ballfield, soccer fields and basketball courts. Future plans call for improved parking near the tennis courts, play equipment, picnicking, connecting the upper and lower areas with a grassy slope than can be used for sledding in the winter. The field is primarily used now for youth football practice.
Future plans have the area connecting to the New River Trail.
Valley Road Park located at Valley and Pulaski Streets contains play equipment and one picnic table. A very small area without room for much expansion, the park could use more picnic tables, additional play equipment, and brush cleared by the creek. There is ample parking and much open-space, since the area is a former airport. Some 90 acres are leased to a local farmer, while the remaining is undeveloped, open space. Used primarily for youth baseball and softball, and adult softball, the fields are in constant use during the spring and summer.
