Northside Park

Located on North Pecan Avenue, inside the City of Philadelphia near the National Guard Complex, is already the hub of sports activity in the parks system. The department's youth baseball, softball and T-ball programs are the parks most successful, boasting about 1200 participants per year. The park also sponsors a fall football program.
In addition to sports, children can also enjoy Imagination Fun Station, a playground constructed in fall 2000 by community volunteers. The playground has all sorts of activities, and even has a large pavilion for parties. The Park Commission along with cooperative efforts from Pearl River Basin District, Mississippi Department of Rehabilitation Services, Neshoba County, the City of Philadelphia and other community groups have constructed a handicapped playground.
