Activities & Programs

Annual Easter Egg Hunt is a great way to welcome spring come join us as we change it a bit from years past by hosting the event at our new Houk Rd Park location.  The events has been relocated this year due to the field improvements that are currently under way at Mingo Park.  At this time we are planning 4 seperate age groups and are welcome to any children age 2-9.  April 7th at 11am.

Walking is a great form of year-round exercise. In addition to our expanding bikeway network, a number of our parks have trails available for your routine providing a safe & enjoyable environment.  Smith Park trail is 1.1 miles, Mingo Park trail is 1 mile, Carson Farms trail is .4 mile, Wetlands Park is 1 mile, and Stratford Woods trail is .5 mile. The Indoor Recreation Center in Mingo Park is also open for walking during inclement weather at 7:30 a.m. on weekdays.  Thirteen laps around the gym is equal to 1 mile.

Bikeways:

In June 2010, City Council passed a bikeway plan which establishes goals and standards for our bikeway system including bike paths, sidewalks, and walking trails. The City currently has about 14 miles of trails.  Some of the major goals of the bikeway plan are to increase connectivity between existing trails, provide connections across town including to the Delaware Community YMCA Center, and to improve maintenance on existing trails.
