Alliance is lucky to have this gem. Great for picnics, strolling, watching games or just driving through any time of year.
Good for sled riding in the winter - several short steep hills in the front (by 183) that have steps. Usually pretty good fireworks in the summer. Newer playground equipment, and walking path around the pond. Fairly safe, although I would probably think twice about going there at dark by myself.
I have many memories of Silver Park. Girl Scout activities in the large pavilion and log cabin, the smell of the fireplace, ducks in the pond and ice skating in the winter. The (now gone) little log cabin where we thought ghosts inhabited behind the small creek. Every 4th of July, we would attend the fireworks--people would bring their blankets to the big hilly areas at the top of the park. I was there recently and not much has changed. It is quiet and the ducks are waddling around the pond. People come there to relax, bring their kids/grand kids to feed the ducks, walk/jog, or play baseball in the baseball fields, etc... If you are in the Alliance Area, this is def'ly a park to visit. It is such an integral part of our town.
Nice pond for kids to fish...basketball courts, tennis courts, several playgrounds, creeks for the kids to search for crawfish....This is a very nice and picturesque park! Great for sled riding as well!
Visited there with my grandparents, long ago. Such fun viewing the fireworks on the 4th of July. Great park for picnic's, reunions or just a place to relax.
A really nice park. Multiple playgrounds for kids. Lots of shelters, open and shady areas to picnic or just relax. Multiple events through out the summer.
We have lived here for over thirty years. Many times we took our children and now take our grandkids. Swing,slides, a train to climb on and a lake with ducks that the kids love to feed. Carnation Days in the park in August is worth attending.
This park offers a lot! Shelters a cabin, fishing etc.! We visit often while walking or with our grands!
We love walking around the park and playing on the playgrounds. The cabin is fun to rent for family get togethers. The only thing that I don't really care for is how nasty the pond looks.
We have enjoyed walking around the lake in the past. It's a short walk, but relaxing. Watching the ducks is entertaining, as well.
