Located on highway 84 between the towns of Weddington and Wesley Chapel of North Carolina, Weddington Optimist Park is a community wide effort with Weddington Optimist Club members heading up that effort. Started in 1987, the facility now includes nine playing fields, six of them lighted. It also includes a large covered picnic shelter, a meeting room, concession stand with rest rooms, playground equipment, and the John Moga Memorial Walking and Fitness Trail. Approximately nine hundred families use the facilities in some capacity, most as part of the programs offered by Wesley Chapel Weddington Athletic Association. The park is open to everyone. There are plans underway which, hopefully, will lead to the expansion of the park from its present 20 acres to more than 45 acres. |
