Centennial Park

I have then walking in the park for over 15 years. I also walk my dog and enjoy the nature the wonderful trees the wonderful landscaping The times that is so beautiful that have peace. The pond that is so so beautiful with these the Mamma goose with the little G following her. It is a hidden park it lies between Marcus cinema and the Centennial Park building. Right now I am just talking about the outside that is so spectacular and unique. But the inside oh my it has so many activities for people of all ages. Take I’ll walk with a loved one are my friends also reminisce and all the good memories we had here. Centennial Park Addison Illinois

This is a great place to log a few miles or bring the kids to work out their energy. There’s a nice playground, baseball/​soccer fields and a tennis court. They say the paved loop is a mile, but my GPS always comes up a bit short of that. For such a nice path, you’d think they would maintain it throughout the year. Right now, it’s impassable at various points, negating its main selling feature as a running destination. Also, it’s not well-​lit, so evening or early-​morning miles are out of the question.

Just found a water fountain here! And there’s even a shorter dog water fountain. Excellent upgrade.

Centennial Park has a lot to offer folks that like to be active and spend some time outdoors. There’s enough room for 3 baseball/​softball games to be played at the same time as well grassy fields for soccer matches. There are also lighted tennis courts and a playground for the kiddos.
The grounds are well-​maintained for the most part including the pond where I have seen kids fishing. Catching anything? not so sure, but it’s nice to see parents and kids enjoying a quiet morning or afternoon casting off. There is just one covered shelter area for a group to gather and picnic/​barbecue as well as benches throughout the park if you just want to relax.
The walking/​jogging trail is fairly flat and runs along the edge of the park. The only negative is that there aren’t a lot of trees so if you happen to run on a particularly sunny day, there isn’t any shade to give you respite from the sun. So use your sunblock.
All in all a nice park for active folks, dog walkers and kids.
