Playground improvement are coming to High Point City Lake Park! 

We are excited to announce that a new playground will replace the current structure. This means that the area where the main playground is located, across from the carousel, will be closed starting Monday, October 9. While we are hard at work, families can still use the playground on the park’s Camp Ann side. You can also check our parks webpage https://www.highpointnc.gov/572/Parks to find some of our other fun playgrounds to enjoy.

High Point City Lake Park was first opened in 1933. The pool, once the largest in the southeast United States, opened in 1935.  Throughout the years there have been many changes and improvements made to the park. In 2023 we opened the Meeting & Event Center where once stood the first gymnasium in High Point. A new pedestrian bridge crosses the Arnold J. Koonce, Jr. City Lake, connecting the park to the High Point Greenway, Bicentennial Greenway and Piedmont Environmental Center and the new aquatic center.
