Co-operation Park (The Co-op)

Locals just call it the Co-op, and if you’ve lived in Indian River for any length of time, you’ve probably spent a Saturday morning here watching little league. The baseball diamonds get a solid workout during the season, and the basketball court draws a steady crowd when the weather’s decent. What really makes it work for families is the open grass — kids can just run, which sounds simple but is harder to find than you’d think. Bring a ball, bring a blanket, bring whoever.
