 Parks & Recreation
The water at the end of
Morris Street. There are two boat ramps and twenty-four boat slips available for
the public. The slips are rented out annually and there is a waiting list for
the spaces when they become available. There is a playground area for the
younger children to play, barbecue grills, park benches and a pavilion with
picnic tables for everyone to enjoy.
The Kiwanis Club donated some of the plantings in the park and help keep it an
attractive place to visit. Cupola Park is sometimes the last place a newcomer
finds, but is soon impressed as it becomes one of their favorites.
There is also W.B. Atkins Memorial Park which is the home of the Millsboro
Little League. There are five fields for softball and baseball from younger tee
ball players to the big league teams. The Millsboro Little League volunteers its
time and uses its money to help the park to continue to be one of the best in
the area. There are now approximately forty-four teams with close to six hundred
ball players. All that adds up to an enormous amount of volunteer hours with
coaches, umpires, ground crews and the list goes on. Parents, grandparents,
aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, brothers, sisters, you name it and they are all
there working, and cheering for their favorite team. There have been both tears
and laughter come from those fields, but for sure, we have all seen a lot of
youth grow up and carry away memories of their time spend playing ball in
Millsboro.
If fishing is one of your favorite past times then there is always the Millsboro
Pond and Ingram Pond. There is a boat ramp on Route 30 for Millsboro Pond which
allows small boats with no larger than five horse power motors along with the
boat ramp at Ingrams pond to accommodate the fisherman.
