This place is great! It sits high over the Flightline, so you can watch the planes. It's also high, enough, during Holiday Fireworks Displays, that you can watch, about a dozen, at once.
Nice nice view of the base and usually I nice breeze. I just wish it had rubber instead of stone. Sometimes older kids try to throw the stones at each other. However I also see some kids make little hills and put some down the slide. So they can be nice if used properly.
If you are looking for a place to host a military related picnic, Stapleton Park is great choice. The views of the flight line are fantastic. It has tennis and basketball courts for athletic activities, plus it is right next to the Gillum Fitness Center to make use of those facilities from Monday – Friday when it is open.
Playground. Basketball courts. Picnic tables and grills. There are bathrooms and water fountains. Also in the immediate area are running and hiking trails and a track.
A nice, quiet, little park. Very relaxing and a good place for an evening meditation.
Good place for a morning run.
It's hot during the summer but it's a nice snap place to do BBQs
