About the Location

Historic Renaming

Coach James Valentine Park, formerly known as Lee Park, is a public recreational area located in Abilene, Texas. The park was recently renamed to honor Coach James Valentine, a local legacy affectionately known as "Coach Val" by many in the community.

This rededication took place as part of an effort to recognize Valentine's significant contributions to Abilene.

The water feature is designed to be accessible and enjoyable for visitors of various ages.

Recreational Offerings

In addition to the splash pad, Coach James Valentine Park offers other recreational facilities for community use. The park includes green spaces suitable for picnics and gatherings, providing residents with a place to relax and enjoy outdoor activities.

While specific details about the park's size and layout are limited in the available information, it is clear that the park serves as a valuable community resource, offering both active and passive recreational opportunities for Abilene residents.
