Nike Park
Nike Park, located on Newport Road in Frenchtown, was originally part of a World War II Nike missile base and was acquired from the federal government. An area of this park was recently tiled and four soccer fields were developed. A 1999 DNR grant allowed for the development of an accessible play area, pathways, and parking improvements. Also present in this park is a picnic area, play equipment, and large areas of open space. Cooperative agreements with private clubs have resulted in the development of a model aircraft flying area and an area for beagle training and competitions is under development. A small section of the park is inaccessible due to its location on the opposite side of a county drain and is farmed by the adjacent owner.
