Ready to plan your trip to the park? Grab your shades and trusty water bottle — here are some of the Circle City’s best.
Riverside Regional Park
This park was founded in 1898 on 6 miles of land surrounded by the White River, The Riverside Community, South Grove golf course, and The Rivers Edge neighborhood. Plus, the new Riverside Promenade, which runs along the east side of the park, is great for walking.
Grassy Creek Regional Park, 10510 E. 30th St.
This east side park, made up of three separate parcels totaling 240+ acres, received some major improvements recently. In 2023, Indy Parks broke ground on the Grassy Creek Environmental Community Center project, which added an environmental education hub for the entire city + a brand-new playground that the kiddos are sure to love. It officially opens on Tuesday, April 22.
The CrossOver Bra by Honeylove feels as good as it looks. It’s beautifully made + engineered for real life wear (read: sculpting support without digging in or discomfort).
I’m having major FOMO (read: fear of missing out) now that the playoffs officially begin tomorrow and I don’t have tickets in my hand.
Back 9 is giving away four tickets to a Pacers playoff game — all you have to do is visit Back 9, snap a picture at your bay (in your blue + gold), and tag the business on your Instagram story or feed. The winner will be announced Monday, just in time for Game 2 on Tuesday. I just might have to enter.
