Squirrel Lake Park Improvements

Squirrel Lake Park is now open to the public.  Improvements to the park include restrooms, new play equipment, paved trails, a new picnic shelter, expanded parking, and access to Four Mile Creek Greenway.

 

KP Park

KP Park is our first pocket park and is located adjacent to Matthews Town Hall. A pocket park is a small outdoor space, usually no more than half an acre and serves as a passive area for people to gather, relax and enjoy the outdoors. This park will be dedicated in memory of Kay Plyler, who was a long time Town employee and the Assistant Town Manager at the time of her passing. The park will have an equestrian theme honoring Kay’s love of horses.
