Currently, there are major parks and more than 40 neighborhood or “pocket” parks throughout the community. Major parks are most often located at the center of a village, and each park is designed with facilities to accommodate a specific focus, such as soccer, tennis, softball or swimming. Just as the community has set the standard for first-rate development, its generous parks reflect that same philosophy. They are well equipped, well maintained and serve as popular gathering spots for community residents of all ages.
