Did you know Brentwood has over 100 parks?!

I recently started a new series on Instagram called "Brentwood Parks you might not have heard of but should check out."  There are some very well known parks here in Brentwood that tend to get busy, but there are also quite a few others that you may not have ever even heard of that are worth the visit.  

One thing that stood out to me when I did this series was that of the 5 parks I featured in this series, we were the only people the entire time we were there at 4 of the parks.  So let's show Brentwood how much we love having family friendly things to do here in town by visiting the things we already have!

Here are the 5 I featured in this series  Be sure to follow us on Instagram for more up-to-date Brentwood area family fun!
