This is the official page for Donald R. Barg Park, part of the award-winning Mansfield, Texas Parks & Recreation Department.
This 4.5 acre park was dedicated to the city through the Park Land Dedication Ordinance in 2011 with development of the gated community, Watercrest at Mansfield.
It is named after Donald R. Barg who served as a member of the Mansfield Park Facilities Development Corporation (MPFDC) from 1992–2008. During Barg’s tenure, the MPFDC significantly expanded the Mansfield parks system, purchasing more than 500 acres of land for parks, athletic facilities and open green space.
According to the 2009 Parks, Recreation, Open Space & Trails Master Plan, this park will also connect with the future Hog Pen Branch linear trail.
Park amenities include a walking trail, a fishing pond, a playground with two swings and two gazebos.
