Picnic Area

Colgate Park

This is the only open play area in a dense residential neighborhood.  This is the natural pedestrian route to the high school.  It is also adjacent to a large tract of wooded conservation land.  The area has great natural beauty and wildlife that inhabit the surrounding woods and small pond located in the park..  New playground equipment was installed in 1998; this equipment was purchased and installed with a combination of City and neighborhood contributions.  The pond is not suitable for swimming.  The wooded areas have some informal trails, one of which leads into the Beverly Golf and Te

Lyon's Park

Also known as Dane Street Beach. The beach overlooks Beverly Harbor and Salem’s waterfront.  Lifeguards during the summer make this a safe place to swim.  The large expanse of lawn between the street and the beach is a great place to picnic, relax or play impromptu games of soccer, softball and frisbee while enjoying the sea breeze.  The hill overlooking the harbor has picnic tables tucked among the trees, providing a secluded place to enjoy a picnic with a view.

Dix Park

This is the only park in Beverly Farms.  It serves as an important resource for the neighborhood, providing recreational and open space opportunities located near the Farms’ downtown area.  The park is below street level on Haskell Street with steps that lead visitors to the play structures and fields.   Due to its low elevation, flooding can often be a problem.  New equipment for pre-school and elementary school aged children was installed in 2001 and Beverly’s Department of Public Services made drainage improvements to alleviate some of the flooding issues in 2008.

Innocenti Park

Renovated in 2008. Innocenti Park is a community-wide resource with a lit softball field. It is located adjacent to the McPherson Youth Center, which has a skate park, street hockey rink and basketball court, in addition to a small building where visitors can play pool or relax on the couches. All of the youth center’s outdoor areas are lit, making it a popular and safe hangout for children during summer evenings.
