Purser Park in Harker Heights 

 

By: Sierra Petty

A beautiful park is just in front of The YMCA (The Y) in Harker Heights. 

Purser Park has a playground for little ones, two fenced-in dog parks, a disc golf course, and a trail going around the perimeter of the park. 

The playground

is a modern playscape with slides, swings, and more. It is always well kept each time we have gone to Purser Park. Also, the dog park is a great playground for fur babies. 

Dog Parks

Your fur baby will thank you for either a walk on the trail or a trip to the dog park. In the dog park section of Purser Park- there are a few training courses and usually plenty of furry friends. The dog parks are in sections based on size. This is so the small dogs are not ran over by the bigger ones. The dogs can watch frisbees fly throughout the park in the disc golf course. 

Disc Golf Course

A disc golf course is found within the fields of the park, through mature trees and lovely greenery. This part of the park is my kids’ favorite part. It is great for beginners of the game and seasoned players. Beware of people along the trail before you throw and remember to shout FORE if your disc flies too close to a person. If you would rather go for a walk instead check out the trail. 

Trail

The trail outlines the perimeter of Purser Park is a smooth one mile sidewalk. It’s perfect for jogging, skateboarding, scootering, and biking (for little ones). Also, there are plenty of benches along the trail to sit and relax on. Whether you are bird watching on the benches beneath the tall trees or running on the trail the park is lots of fun.
