realize the enormity of it until today. Michael Faklis Park is 16+ acres and has
- two full basketball courts
- tennis courts
- large playground for the kids
- an 18 hole disc golf course
- softball and baseball fields
- picnic areas
- and more
Pack a picnic and come on out to the park. The park is pet friendly so you can bring your dog out to get some exercise as well. There are plenty of park benches around the park too.
If you’re in the Spanos Park area hopefully you already know about this great park. If not, I’d recommend you head over and discover it for yourself. It’s located on 5250 Consumnes Drive.

Need a place to destress? Take a stroll, jog or bike around the .80 mile park. Victory park is a beautiful setting to do such a thing. It is surrounded by beautiful older homes and is full of mature trees which makes the .80 mile stretch peaceful. On any given day you will see other folks jogging or walking their dogs. Come join them.
Victory Park is located just north of 1-5 on Pershing Avenue. Below is a 2 min video of my entire walk around the park as I enjoy the sunshine. Check it out and we will see you out there!
