The Arlington Historical Society is where the past is a present to the future. The staff works hard to continue to preserve the history, stories and events that have gone to shape the Arlington of today. One of Arlington's most historically significant sites is the Knapp Heritage Park. Located in downtown Arlington, this structure offers a glimpse at pioneer life. The park consists of a one-room schoolhouse, a one-room cabin, a dog trot cabin and the Bardin barn. Be sure to look for the general store in James Knapp's law office, as it is a recognized landmark from the Arlington Preservation Society.
Fielder Park's lush greenery is not only one of the park's most attractive attributes, but you'll enjoy sitting in the shade of one of these many trees as you let the kids play on the playground or basketball court. There's also a tennis court in close proximity, too. So pack up a great picnic lunch and plan to spend a day enjoying the great outdoors with the family in Arlignton's Fielder Park.
