Area Parks
We
currently have three parks located in the South Gateway
Neighborhood.
Wes Bennett Park

This 4.4 acre property is adjacent to Pringle School. One of
our newer parks, it was developed in 2007 and City Council
changed the name from Pringle Park to Wes Bennett park in
memory of the former City Councilor. As you can see, the
splash fountain is quite popular! Other amenities include:
Picnic Table/Benches, Basketball Court, Play Equipment,
Walking paths, Bike Rack, and Lighting

Wormwood SE
Salem, Oregon 97306
This park is 4.4 acres and consists of the following items:

This park received new school-age play equipment thanks to
the efforts of the South Gateway Neighborhood Association,
Salem Parks Foundation, and the City of Salem’s Park
Improvement Fund. A special thanks goes out to Katrina
Strand and LeaAnn Holley for leading the fund raising effort
that helped make this happen!
