Battleborn Park has a playground, a grassy area for picnics and sports, walking paths, shaded seating areas, an obstacle course and a splash pad.
The name for the park originated with the help of the local fourth-grade students of Ries Elementary School.
"We listened to the community and knew there was a demand for more green spaces in this area. Battle Born Park reflects that, said Commissioner Jones. "This Park represents our commitment to creating a family-friendly environment where the community can come together and thrive. I am excited that Ries Elementary and Tarkanian Middle school students will have such a wonderful place just steps away."
