This is my not so secret garden and safe space. I enjoy the variety of people and animals that also enjoy this place. It also has a small walking/running path I regularly utilize.

I bring my dog here almost daily. It's a great place to meet other dog owners. Also, it has a huge grass lawn for dogs to run on. Compared to the Denny Sub Station dog park, Cascade Park is seemingly 3-4 times larger. The kid's play area is awesome. It's got this hot lava obstacle course. It's really fun.
