Richland Park
Located to the north of the Elmer Hinton Library.  This park has baseball fields, soccer fields, a swimming pool, outdoor walking track and other facilities. 

If you go in a circle around the walking track, you will have gone 1.2 miles.  Here is how to do this: Enter the park on Americas Way.  Park your car in the first parking lot.  Head north on the walking track (parallel to Portland Blvd.).  At the north end of the park, the path splits.  Turn right and head east (parallel to Jim Courtney Road).  Continue following the loop until you come back to where your car is.  That's 1.2 miles.  There are restrooms in the back of the concession building on the east side of the track.  The restrooms are open during normal park hours, but they are locked on holidays.
