Memorial Park is a favorite family destination. Its many amenities, from a picturesque, 3-acre, man-made lake with water fowl and a paved walking path, to a playground and a zoo, attract people from across the region. Located in the Five Points neighborhood, Memorial Park is well-loved and well-used, especially the covered pavilions. There's even a fenced, off-leash area for dogs. You can hold a birthday party at the zoo for a nominal fee and also rent deluxe picnic shelters.
