There is very limited parking so many people rode bikes or walked to the new park.
There was a brief program, followed by refreshments.
While the kids played and rolled down the contoured lawns, the adults had a good time talking.
The park, located at 2350 N 167th, Shoreline WA 98133 now boasts Basketball, Off-leash dog area, Paved Trails, Picnic areas, Playground, and Soccer.
Claudia wrangled everyone at the event into line for a group portrait, which they appear to be enjoying!
The park is named after James Keough, an Edmonds resident who donated the land to the City of Shoreline for a park.
As a home owner adjacent to James Keough park I voted for the park improvement however management of this project was not handled well by the city. Now that the city has now determined that park mowing will now only be done once per year we are very worried about the fire hazard this will create. We did voice our concerns with the project manager but don’t feel that he felt our worry was warranted. I will go to the city council meeting tonite to make city leaders aware of this issue and their responsibility for any property damage
