McDonough Playground

John McDonough was an extremely generous man and left money for the city to build a multitude of playgrounds and over thirty public schools. This is a large playground with a football field, stands, a covered basketball court, restrooms and playground equipment. The problem is vandals constantly tear up what kids should be enjoying. Other than that, this would be a great place to play.

This playground has the potential to be amazing. The kids are always out there playing basketball & football enjoying themselves but the play area is horrible and the lights are hardly working. The kids can’t play football bc there are missing lights around the field. The kids always complain about not being able to see the football in the air because certain areas are dark bc the lights are out. I understand that the park director put in a request to have the lights fixed months ago but NORDC hasn’t sent anybody over to fix them. Let’s hope nothing bad happens out there bc there little to no visibility on the field bc NORDC is neglecting to fix the lights

We had a great time

Great, it was awesome to stop there, rest on our journey home, a quick bite 2eat, have fun, eat crawfish, and 2 see other people enjoyed their day like us!

Under new supervision... great opportunities for the community. Sport camps and seminars that teaches the fundamentals and how to apply them to your education and life.
