Another place for the community to play has opened. Discovery Park in Bend’s NorthWest Crossing is a 31-acre park includes a three-acre lake, approximately 12 acres of developed park and about 16 acres of natural open space. People can enjoy walking trails, a nature play area, a picnic shelter, a lakeside water play area and an off-leash dog park.
“Discovery Park’s opening has been anticipated by the community since last fall. We appreciate everyone’s patience as we waited to open the park so that newly planted fragile plants and turf could establish,” said Michelle Healy, strategic planning and design director of the Bend Park and Recreation District.
The park was constructed through a development agreement with West Bend Properties.
The public is invited to a park opening celebration on Thursday, July 16 in the late afternoon.
