Kelly Park exists at the end of a neighborhood cul-de-sac and along County
Highway 266. It is fenced off from the highway to keep children away from
traffic hazards.
There is a picnic table, some playground equipment and plenty of area to play
touch football, catch, frisbee, etc.
Parks provide places for children and families to
unwind and have fun in a city. Parks, also, counteract the effect that the city
concrete and asphalt streets and buildings have on peoples peace of mind and
serenity. Parks have a "decongestant" value to the mental health of a
community. Worthington is blessed with having many parks. Especially valuable
are the many parks by Lake Okabena where there are many places to go to "let the
stress out" and re-create our serenity and composure in a hussle-bustle world.
