Weber Park

Take the Riverside Exit in Roseville. Stay on Riverside until the end and turn right on Vernon. Right on Grant. Left on Oak and Left on Washington. Left on Main Street. Left on Berkely and Right on Circuit.

This is a hidden park. It is downtown slightly so all types of people come here. There are two playground areas with small and big kid swings. It has a great open space for soccer or frisbee or what sport you choose. There is a basketball court as well. It is out of the way of the busy street so it is safe in that regards. Happy park day.
