Maple Leaf Park & Pool
Now that the weather is nice and hot, make sure to check out the new playground we installed last fall at Maple Leaf Park!
For over four years the community has worked hard to raise money to replace the play structures at both Core and Maple Leaf Park.
The ever-popular Maple Leaf Pool opened its doors at the end of June. Regular open swim times are every day from 12-8pm.
