With warmer weather on the horizon, we know how exciting it is to get outside and enjoy our parks. While Jay's Nest Playground is currently closed for demolition and improvements, we'd like to highlight another one of Seaford’s great local parks, Soroptimist Park!

Located at 994 Middleford Road, Soroptimist Park offers a variety of amenities for all to enjoy, including a newly redone walking trail, pavilions perfect for relaxing or enjoying lunch, multiple playground structures, and a swing set.

We encourage all Seaford residents to take advantage of everything Soroptimist Park has to offer this season!

We've also received wonderful feedback about what you'd like to see in the new Jay's Nest Playground. If you haven't taken the survey yet, we encourage you to do so. Your input will help shape a space the entire community can enjoy!
