One of the best charity in the world because 96% of your donations goes to the needy peoples directly. They all volunteers themselves, no one is getting pay here. I would strongly recommend people to donate as much as they can to the Humanity First.

Started this trail from "Boyd north parking lot" and it is beautiful. There are a bunch of smaller trails off the main trail that, in my opinion lead you to the best spots. There is minimal litter anywhere because they have a bunch of trashcans around. I'd recommend anyone check this place out.

Great place to have fun with your friends! You just have to buy your drink (2€ minimum price) and then you are free to choose as many board games as you want from a wide variety. I'm gonna visit it again for sure ????????

Sugarbush Heritage Park

Reviewed By kennymemdy

Really nice trail, it’s a dirt trail and not pavement which I prefer more for hikes. It’s not 100% stroller friendly but you can still manage to maneuver over pass rocks and tree roots. There’s several paths to choose from and they end up connecting and leading to the same direction so you can’t get lost. It can take you approximately 45mins-1 hour to walk from start to end. There’s also several parking in the lot and a playground.

It is a great place to be. They have a variety of reptiles and they are well kept. The place is super clean and everything is taken care of very well. They have a small gift store where you can buy cute stuff for your self or for a gift. We would love to visit this place again.
