Stillwell Community Park is located at 207th, just a bit off Metcalf Ave in Bucyrus, Kansas. Stilwell was Johnson County’s first inclusive park.
Stilwell Community Park Features
This community park has a fence completely around the playground area allowing children of all ages to be able to run around and be safe.
There is also a trail that’s one mile long outside of the playground area. That goes into grassland, woodlands, and wetlands.
There is a shelter with a grill just outside the fence and restrooms. Unfortunately, the only shade near the playground is the shelter house.
