Kate Barr Ross Memorial Park

Why Scout picked it

This park is suitable for a free family outing, especially for an hour or two of playground time or sports. It pairs well with a picnic or a stop before/after other local attractions.

Featured in these outings

Family Afternoon at the Prison Museum — Dive into Texas history with a visit to the Texas Prison Museum, an unexpectedly engaging stop for older kids and adults. Afterwards, refuel with a family-friendly buffet before letting the kids burn off energy at a local park.
