Located at 2058 Middle St, the J. Marshall Stith Park is named for our own Marshall Stith who served as Mayor to the Town from June 1997 – June 2005. There are a multitude of aspects to the park that make it an exceptional space for recreation play, leisure and entertainment. The park is rich in history due to the old artillery mound located on-site as well as the Town's iconic Gazebo. Given the parks accessibility and usability, it is crucial that the space continues to serve its citizens over time.
