Peace is even in the name, Sholom, and also in its purpose. The park was created as a haven for all people seeking peace. It covers 44 acres and contains two miles of trails, a formal garden, prairie, koi pond, and plenty of places to sit and relax after a busy day.

A nature walk is always a good way to do that. In fact, nature has been shown to have many positive effects on our health, both physical and mental.
