Patriots Park in Downers Grove is a relatively small park but still very enjoyable. The park is centered by a lake (called Barth Pond) which is surrounded by a blacktop paved path that is about a half mile loop. Barth Pond has convenient places for recreational fishing. Ducks seem to love this pond. There is a large picnic shelter and open grass area on the east side of the park, and a well-furnished children’s playground on the west end of the park. A cute little prairie garden was full of flowers on a visit in August. Patriots Park is a nice little park with a variety of options for family enjoyment.

Visited McCollum Park in Downers Grove one recent August afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed the walk. The asphalt paved trail circumscribing the park is a 1.2 winding mile. The trail is pretty flat, asphalt paved and easy. McCollum Park is a prime park for a variety of sports. There are fields for Soccer and Softball, and courts for Tennis, Volleyball and Basketball. Interspersed in between are children’s playgrounds. There is also a Putt-Putt golf course and a snack shop (closed currently). There are several picnic spots and shelters. The neat feature of the paved path is that signs direct walkers to go clockwise and bikers to go anti-clockwise. The loop is undisturbed and continuous except for one road crossing at the parking lot. McCollum Park is an awesome community park providing a numerous sports/recreational opportunities. Ample parking is available.
