One Of The First

ONE OF THE FIRST -- Kiwanis Park was among the first few parks to join the Community Fishing Program (CFP) back in 1984, just after Chaparral Park. This lovely park in Tempe has a 13-acre lake with several ramadas for anglers to stay in the shade while fishing. This park has a large playground and swimming pool, and seasonally you can rent a paddleboat and float around the lake. If you rent a paddleboat please try to stay away from shore anglers' fishing lines. You can fish from your boat on this lake; just make sure you have a boat permit from the City of Tempe.
