The lake side community park has been a central part of Mallard Lakes from its very beginning in 1986. The original developer knew that the park would serve the children and community well. Although the park offered a nice setting and it was conveniently located for community events, it didn’t have playground equipment…something the children of Mallard Lakes could really enjoy.
What follows is what makes Mallard Lakes a special neighborhood:
One of Mallard Lakes’ longtime residents owns a landscaping company. In his travels he noticed a neighborhood that was upgrading their playground equipment. Rather than disposing of the older equipment the community agreed to donate it to Mallard Lakes.
After taking delivery of the playground equipment the Mallard Lakes community came together to do the installation and any needed painting, refurbishing and assembling. It was a massive undertaking. It took many man hours over several weeks. It was an amazing community effort to watch. What was even more amazing was to see the variety of talented people who live right here in Mallard Lakes.
The updated Mallard Lakes’ park and playground equipment are wonderful and enjoyed by adults and children of all ages. But what is more important is the community response to working together for a common goal to enhance Mallard Lakes’ lake side park and create a fun & safe play area.
