Douglasville Military Honor Garden

When you enter through the main entrance to Hunter Park, you will see a fighter plane to your left. The honor garden was opened in the fall of 2017. Read more about the garden here.

 


Fun Fact: Some time ago, there was a miniature train that traveled around the park on tracks. I was only able to find one photo of the train online. What remains today are the antique train tracks. There is also a full-size boxcar just past the lake on your right-hand side as you enter into the park.
