Arbuckle Park

The Story Behind the Park

Tucked away in Chandler, Arizona, Arbuckle Park is not your average neighborhood green space. It bears the name of Emma Jean Arbuckle, a remarkable woman who left her mark on the local African American community as a leader, midwife, and maternal figure to many - adding a layer of rich history to this community gathering spot.

What You Can Do Here

If you're looking to break a sweat or just enjoy some fresh air, this park offers several options. The basketball and tennis courts are nicely lit, so you can keep playing even after the sun calls it a day. Pickleball enthusiasts will be happy to find courts that welcome players from wobbly beginners to seasoned pros.

Need to clear your head after a long day? The 0.38-mile walking path winds through the park, offering a peaceful route for your daily steps or a casual stroll.

Kid-Friendly Zones

The playground here isn't your run-of-the-mill jungle gym - it's thoughtfully designed with equipment that caters to kids of different ages. It's kept clean and well-maintained, making it a hit with local families.

Gathering Spots

Planning a get-together? The picnic area comes equipped with BBQ grills and a covered shelter for those sunny Arizona days. A nice touch: there are power outlets available in the entertainment area - great for charging phones or powering small devices while you're hanging out.
