Long's Park, Lancaster

This is one of my favorite places in Lancaster. The open field is a great place to let your kid run or fly a kite or just look up at the big, white puffy clouds that appear so frequently during the spring and summer months. There are several little playgrounds and it’s nice just to take a walk around the lake. My absolute favorite is to come here for 4th of July. My in-laws introduced me to it about 12 years ago and every chance I get, I try to make it back (I think I’ve been to at least 5 or 6 of them?). Make sure to get some kettle corn!! It’s the best around.

I took my Great Granddaughter there to check out their playground. It was terrific! It had rubberized squares for the kids to run on and I didn't have to worry about her falling as she was running around. She made many new friends because it was crowded with families. Great place!
