PARKS



The largest of West Hill's many fine parks, Morningside is the social gathering spot for the community. Here on weekends church groups and families, of every ethnic background, gather in one of the city's finest parks to picnic and barbecue, jog and wander, sit and wonder, play and enjoy nature.

This beautiful park stretches from the Go Station to Morningside Avenue along the banks of Highland Creek. For most of its length it is a wilderness area with a paved path for bikes and roller bladers and benches for the weary and those that just want to pause and meditate.

But for community groups and picnickers the broad grass flatlands of the Highland Creek Valley floor are a mecca for families and groups, with races and soccer games in progress, kite flying and model plane flights breaking out at any time, and the fragrant aroma of barbecues whetting the appetite. Here too, the area's amateur astronomers host a star gazing night in the spring and the fall.
