Description: Metz Park is joined to the hike and bike trail by an attractive bridge. It is just north of the Holly electric plant. The park's excellent athletic fields are in almost constant use. There's a kick ball field for pick-up games, so bring your ball.

A pond bordering the lake has good fishing, and the splash pad play-area will keep kids entertained for hours.

Metz Recreation Center is perfect for any age person. There is a wide variety of sports and after schools programs and a daily senior program. The covered basketball court makes it a good place to play on those sunny summer days. Other building facilities include a meeting room,dance studio and kitchen.
