It features a shelter house and gazebo, a nine-hole disc golf course, play-ground equipment, a lighted two-mile recreation trail, lighted regulation basketball court, soccer fields and sand volleyball courts.

Dog Park- Bring your favorite canines and let them run freely in an environment that is safe and rewarding for all. If you are not traveling with a dog, stop by and watch the fun. The five-plus acre park is fenced and divided into two sections, an area for smaller dogs and one for large dogs. Double gates enable you to move in and out of the park without risk of your canine friend’s escape. The park features several perma-nent benches, a two-level water fountain (one for dogs and one for adults) and three pieces of dog-inspired playground equipment. Daily passes are available at the McCreary Community Building which is open seven days a week. No children under 14 years will be allowed in the fenced in dog area, and no one under 18 will be permitted to escort a dog into the park.

On the west side is the Hiawatha Bike Trail, natu-ral prairie land and interpretive signs. The east side contains the youth soc-cer fields and new playground equip-ment donated by the City of Dawson. Restrooms available during soccer season only.
Caboose Park- Caboose Park is the Perry trailhead fortheRaccoonRiverValleyRecreationTrail. Located across the street from the Welcome Depot, at the intersection of First Avenue (Highway 144) and Willis Avenue, the park continues to evolve and grow to serve the needs of visitors and residents alike. - Page 5 -
