Parks include the East County Community Center and Fairfield Park
Residents can meet their neighbors and take part in fun community activities at East County Community Center. Express your creative side in the paint room, meet your fitness goals in the gym or challenge friends to chess in the game room. Fairland residents have easy access to nature in a suburban setting by visiting the Fairland Recreation Park. The park features 4.4 miles of trails for hiking, biking and horseback riding. It also offers plenty of options for outdoor recreation, from athletic fields to basketball and pickleball courts. The smaller Edgewood Park in the southern part of the neighborhood provides the perfect place for children to work off some energy on playground equipment and then eat lunch in the shade of a picnic pavilion. On the other side of the county, the Fairland Sports and Aquatics Complex is a popular spot to exercise in the building’s year-round training pool, family-friendly leisure pool or spacious hot tub. Or you can sweat it out on the tennis courts, hosted in the complex’s signature “tennis bubble,” which allows for play in all four seasons.
