    Weston’s picturesque parks offer something for everyone. From leisurely walks to a
    sprint down the track, birdwatching, shaded playgrounds, athletic leagues, tennis,
    basketball and much more. Experience Weston @Play! Enjoy Weston’s parks all year.

    Fixit Bike Repair Stations
    The Fixit stations have all of the tools needed to perform
    on basic bike repairs, from changing a fat tire to
    adjusting brakes and derailleurs. Stations are located
    in the following parks: Emerald Estates, Gator Run,
    Indian Trace, Library Park, Peace Mound and Weston
    Regional.

    Severe Weather Warning System
    Weston’s largest athletic parks – Weston Regional,
    Tequesta Trace and Vista Park – are equipped with
    lightning detection meters to advise park visitors when
    lightning threatens the area. A loud siren will alert park
    visitors to seek shelter immediately. An “all clear” signal
    (three consecutive alarms) will sound when conditions
    improve and activities are clear to resume

         Hand Sanitizer and Sunscreen Stations
         Here’s a park perk for you! Weston Parks has added stations with hand sanitizer and
         sunscreen to some of our parks in high traffc areas. While we encourage you to bring your
