Hickory Crawdads / L.P. Frans Stadium

Reviewed By wbjii - Hickory, United States

Few things better than baseball on a summer evening. LP Frans Stadium is a fine minor league park; there's not a bad seat there. Extra netting to protect fans is a great addition. Many nights there are long lines at the concessions, especially when only one (typically on the 3rd base side) is open.

Glenn C Hilton Jr Memorial Park

Reviewed By yellowmountaindaisy - North Carolina, United States

Bike paths, walking trails, multiple play areas and picnic shelters, a creek, fields for group play, frisbee golf, and a nature trail with ducks/fish to feed. You might want to bring your own animal friendly food because feeding people food is discouraged, but their food is very pricey. Also be aware that the Park sometimes closes due to limited parking during peak times/seasons.
