William Connell Park

Nice city park, great place to take the kids for a skate during lockdown.

What a fantastic park. Has climbing structure for 1-4, 5-12 year olds, and a pretty sweet 12+ area with lots of room to run, and more advanced climbing, swinging, hanging structure. Basketball court, soccer field, football field, open grass area, splash pad, large covered pavilion, concession building with available bathrooms (currently cleaned twice daily), and a large paved trail throughout the park.

Great location. Just off the road from Upper James via Stonechurch and West 5th. Offers a good bit of quietness to the area. Easily walkable around the pond, paved and smooth. You can even walk down to the water and see a variety of plants and animals like frogs and birds. It has enough bushes to hide most of the houses around you.There are two playgrounds separated by a large parking lot so enough space to play. Two football fields (both locked behind city fence) but also large soccer field free to the public. There is also a pathway leading into a small wooded area that offers some seclusion, but keep in mind it is not paved, just some stone gravel so it can be prone to mud or puddles.Overall great to jog, walk your dog, or just get some fresh air.

Hidden gem that has a good level layout for comfortable walks. Water features for kids to cool off and a soccer field. I'm sure it will be well used this summer.

really great park with two very large parking lots. everything is brand new. brand new tennis courts, 2 of them. they are normally always full. a full sized basketball court. a soccer field which is kept in alright condition. the park has a brand new play structure and a splash pad. very clean and well maintained park.

This is an amazing new facility in the area. It has children play area, multiple soccer fields, a football field, a basketball and a couple of tennis courts.It has a designated picnic area with Male and female washrooms. The facility has an ample parking space. The overall designing and space development is of top standards.

Beautiful family park.....but why have public washrooms and keep them locked??? Not cool

This new park looks very nice. We went to enjoy the splash pad and found it very nice. It's a large splash pad with lots of water features suitable for kids of all ages.

One of the best public parks I’ve visited. Amazing tennis courts. The location, the scenery as well as the park for kids with slides is really good. It has two courts both hard courts, slides for kids, running track and amazing space to bring your dogs out on a gorgeous day.

Spacious new park. Has fountains for kids, basketball courts, rugby fields trail tennis courts and enough parking. One round of walk takes 20 minutes depends on your pace. Well maintained
