Simmers-Young Park Update

Published: October 15, 2024

Bartow, Fla. (Oct. 15, 2024) — The dog park at Simmers-Young Park in Winter Haven is closed indefinitely due to the north side of the facility being used as a hurricane debris collection site.

The south side of the park, which features seven soccer fields and a playground, is open to the public, but access is from American Spirit Boulevard only.

If you have questions, contact Polk County Parks and Natural Resources Division at (863) 534-7377.
