Vets Park

Vets parks name denotes the heritage of this area of the city dating back to WWII when it was the area where returning men from the Army, Navy, Airforce, etc came with their families to live in trailer-houses, etc, because there was no other housing available. The area became known as Veterans Park.

The Park area is now small and located within a city block. It must be entered through the alley.

It includes various playground equipment for neighborhood children.
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.
