Join us on a trip down memory lane as we visit Southview Park, where the playground equipment is straight out of our childhoods. From a rocket ship to a fort, this park is a blast from the past. But don’t be fooled by its age, as we discovered that it was founded in 1981, almost forty years ago! So put on your play clothes and come explore this hidden gem with us.
