Parks
Maize Detention Pond
In 2004, a detention pond was build to help lessen flooding on the north side of the city. In 2005, the Maize Tree Board decided to concentrate on planting trees and bushes around the pond. Several –‘2-4’ seedlings such as Cedar & Austrian Pines, some purchased by the board, others donated by Prairie Pines Tree Farm and several other plants donated by Woodard Mercantile were planted. Future plans include building a walking path around the pond.
Chilton Field
Located next to the Community Building, 401 Khedive, during the summer
the field has been used for baseball practices and during the Fall, the
field has been used to support the Fall Festival carnival rides.
Community Building Playground
In 2007 the city of Maize upon suggestions of residents and recommendation of the Maize Park Advisory Board purchased and installed new playground equipment in the city park adjacent to the Community Building.
