Park Description
Thomas Park, although smaller than typical community parks, serves in that capacity by virtue that it is the largest park in its respective zone. Thomas is also one of the oldest parks in College Station. Facilities include a 25 meter swimming pool with bathhouse, two lighted tennis courts, two basketball courts, picnic units, two playgrounds, two soccer fields, a lighted jogging track (1/3 mile), and parking for 27 cars. A picnic shelter, with barbecue pit and volleyball court, is available at no cost. Matching funds from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department provided partial funding for this park. Thomas Park is dedicated to Mable Clare Thomas for the work she did for the community. Over ½ mile of sidewalks were added in early 1997.
