TOURISM INFORMATION

If you're thinking of taking advantage of a beautiful day with your family, whether it's a hunger for the outdoors, sports, or history, Richmond's attractions and picturesque parks will satisfy any appetite.

The city's largest park, Lake Reba, has a little something for everyone. The 600-acre complex features baseball fields, soccer fields, a horseshoe complex, a walking trail, shelters, playground areas, and a 75-acre fishing lake with a fish cleaning station. Also on site is an 18-hole championship golf course at Gibson Bay that offers both a driving and putting range. If you're not ready for the championship challenge, Adventure Falls miniature golf with a batting cage complex is right around the corner.

The newest Lake Reba attraction is set to open Memorial Day, 2008. The Richmond family aquatic center will feature 49,260 square feet of beach and deck areas, 8100 square feet of shade structures, and a 1500 square foot spray ground. The $5.38 million complex also will have an eight-lane competition pool, a slide area, a splash area for kids, and areas that are handicapped accessible. In addition to Lake Reba, Richmond is home to several other parks, including Irvine-McDowell, Dillingham Heights, and E. C. Million Parks.
