Rinks and Fields in Fargo

  • In 1951, there were 12 parks and nearly fifty years later in 2010 the Park District had 94 parks.
  • In 1957, at Lewis and Clark, Washington School, Goldenridge site and Chaney Field the Park District installed ice skating rinks, hockey rinks and playgrounds.
  • Mickelson Park and Fields were originally called North Parade playgrounds until 1952 when the fields were renamed for P.E. Mickelson, a prominent Director of Phy Ed in the Fargo Public Schools.  P.E. Mickelson was a swimmer, referee and organized the FM Softball Association in 1932. 

Recreation Along the Red River

  • The Linden Woods, the park’s charming original name, became simply Lindenwood Park, a place for tourists to camp (thanks to running water in 1921 and the addition of horse and motorbike mounted police in 1922), a lovely picnic and leisure spot for locals (due to benches and picnic areas being added in 1923-24), and home base for a Civilian Conservation Corp (CCC) camp (men constructed the main road and toilets and shelters in summer 1934). The main shelter is an original shelter built by the CCC.
