Delco park has a lot to offer…from softball fields to butterfly gardens. It has a small pond with ducks/geese and a nice walking path. Sometimes the geese poop on the paved walk ways. People fish in the pond. It has a nice restroom facility and places where they play youth soccer. 2020 update: the pond was re-done last year and is now much nicer, but the path around it is sometimes covered in goose poop. The butterfly garden is nice, but it needs some work to keep down the weeds…still the flowers are very nice.
Nice place for a daily walk around the lake. Many friendly people, I just wish kids weren’t riding up behind me on bikes or scooters.

A very nice place for families to take their children or for people to relax in nature. I had my two young children there and had a great experience. Park was very clean and well maintained.
This is a great park!! If you’re looking to fish, work out, run, especially play soccer come here! One of the cleanest, well cared for parks in the Dayton area. Glad to see what public areas can be when maintained.
