It’s time for another round of Name That Park! 🌳

Today we’re visiting another park that absolutely blew us away! Tucked into a beautiful Lansing neighborhood is a surprisingly HUGE park with sprawling green space, a playground, and a basketball court.

Seriously, who knew Lansing had so many giant parks hiding in plain sight?!

Well, technically, we did. And Lansing Parks and Recreation definitely did. 😂 But we’re still amazed by the incredible green spaces tucked into neighborhoods all across our city!

Think you know where we are? Name that park! 🌳🏀

Wow, what a beautiful fall week we're having! 🍂☀️ It’s the perfect time to get outside and explore Lansing’s parks.

Maybe you’ll stop by this one today! It’s another petite park tucked into a neighborhood, with everything nearby neighbors need to enjoy a little time outdoors—a playground, a basketball court, and plenty of beautiful mature trees when you need a little shade. 🌳🏀🛝

It’s time to Name That Park! 🌳

You might be dodging raindrops if you head to the park today, but luckily it’s nice and dry inside for another round of Name That Park! 🌧️🌳

Today we’re heading to Lansing’s south side, where this park has tons of green space, basketball courts, and plenty of room for soccer, frisbee, or whatever gets you outside and moving.

What a beautiful week we’re having! ☀️ It’s perfect weather to get outside, explore Lansing’s parks…and, of course, play another round of Name That Park! 🌳

Today’s park features a beautiful garden operated by the Greater Lansing Food Bank. You can also hit the tennis courts, play on the playground, and enjoy views of Wynken, Blynken and Nod. 👀

How about another round of Name That Park? 🌳

You’d think that after visiting more than 70 Lansing parks, we’d be used to it—but we’re still blown away by just how many parks and pockets of green space are tucked into neighborhoods all across our city.

This northside spot is one of those hidden gems. A playground, pavilion and basketball court sit surrounded by a neighborhood of beautifully kept bungalows.
