Matthews North Carolina is a lovely small town near Charlotte. A two-mile greenway
winds through the historic downtown and some of the adjacent neighborhoods.
The trail connects with Squirrel Lake Park.
On a beautiful day in April, Matthews held a grand re-opening of the recently
renovated park and dedicated a new fountain and seating area at the
greenway.
Come take a walk with me along the greenway and into the park.
The greenway follows Four Mile Creek.
The wide paved path is perfect for running, walking or bicycling.
The town has created a spot to stop and relax with stone benches and a fountain
where water cascades over large rocks.
At another spot along the greenway path you can discover and enjoy rustic
artwork.
Town residents enjoyed the April grand opening activities at the twenty nine
acre Squirrel Lake Park.
A fishing pond with pier is the centerpiece of Squirrel Lake.
The park includes two shelters with picnic tables, a playground, restrooms, a
horseshoe pit,
and twelve hole disc course.
The park is a certified wildlife habitat area.
