Love our local waterfront park. Great place to bring the kids for a play in the shallows or a swim to cool off. Great place to bring all the water toys or launch your yacht or jetski. Great place to enjoy the free gas barbeques and have a picnic. Great place to let mans best friend run around. RIP Max.
