About Sundance Park in Buckeye
Sundance Park, located in Buckeye, Arizona, is a 38-acre community space that has undergone significant expansion to meet the growing needs of the city's residents. The park, which first opened in 2012, has recently completed its Phase II development, bringing a host of new features and amenities to the area.
The centerpiece of the park's expansion is a three-acre fishing lake, stocked with a variety of fish by the Arizona Game & Fish Department throughout the year. This lake not only provides recreational opportunities but also serves as part of the park's water conservation efforts. The splash pad water drains into the lake and is used to irrigate the grass and fields within the park.
Sundance Park offers extensive green spaces and multi-use areas for various activities. The park features four multi-use soccer fields and two lighted basketball courts, catering to sports enthusiasts. For younger visitors, there are multiple playgrounds and a new splash pad, which is the first publicly accessible one in the city of Buckeye.
The park's design incorporates elements for community gatherings and events. It includes a grand pavilion and several ramadas of different sizes scattered throughout the area. These structures provide space for both large public events and more intimate gatherings. A large open area adjacent to the lake serves as an additional gathering space, suitable for hosting performances, events, markets, and private parties.
Connectivity is a key feature of Sundance Park. Broad walking paths connect Phase I and Phase II of the park and encircle its perimeter, fostering a sense of interconnectivity for visitors. The park also includes expanded parking facilities to accommodate increased visitor numbers.
Environmental considerations have been integrated into the park's design. The space includes 1,415 shrubs and ground cover plants, as well as 197 trees, contributing to the local ecosystem. The park's water features and irrigation systems work together to support water conservation efforts in the arid Arizona climate.
