We are very fortunate to have a High-A Milwaukee Brewers affiliate team right in our backyard. The Wisconsin Timber Rattlers play at the Neuroscience Group Field at Fox Cities Stadium, which is located right off the highway in Appleton, WI.

Our family loves taking hikes, catching frogs, and exploring new trails. I grew up in Neenah, and one place we would go for walks when I was a kid was Heckrodt Wetland Reserve in Menasha.

Spring is here! Pending any awful pranks from Mother Nature, we will start being regulars at the park very soon. While we haven’t come close to listing all the wonderful parks the Fox Valley offers, here are 15 worth visiting this year. If we missed your favorite, leave it in the comments.
