West High School Baseball field. mostly enclosed, not always open though. Location: 11th and Speer. . This is not a "dog park" however, many Paryway owners take their dogs there to let them play around and get socialized. There is a gate that does not completely enclosed the field, if you dog is a good listener, please come join us. I am usually there between 5pm-9pm. Sometimes they lock the gate!
