Gano Park

A park on Gano Avenue in Orange Park.

Somer’s Sunshine Park is named for Somer Thompson, a 7-year old Orange Park resident who was kidnapped and murdered in 2009. Spurred by the tragedy, the Town Council dedicated the 1 acre parcel of land as a park that would bear Somer’s name and provide a peaceful place to spend time with family and friends. Business owners and residents rallied together and donated approximately $25,000 in labor and materials. Community members and local organizations gathered in March 2012 to put the finishing touches on the park, which includes a walking trail, butterfly garden, shade trees, picnic areas and benches. Somer’s Sunshine Park is a shining testimony to the spirit, unity and dedication of the Orange Park community.

Clarke House Park is home to the Clarke House, which is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Park facilities include a large playground, sand volleyball court, nature trails, gardens, lake, pavilions, grills, and restrooms. Pavilion reservations are strongly recommended.

Bradley Park encompasses 10 acres of pristine water front conservation land on Doctors Lake. Senator Rob Bradley was instrumental in obtaining the funding to purchase and preserve this property.
