## About

Hemenway Valley Park in Boulder City provides an extraordinary, world-famous setting for Thanksgiving morning recreation, where expansive green manicured lawns overlook the shimmering waters of Lake Mead. Renowned across the desert southwest as the favorite grazing sanctuary for wild Desert Bighorn Sheep, the park invites families to combine a scenic holiday run with incredible wildlife viewing. Families can participate in a paved 5K or a relaxed 1-Mile Family Stroll, watching gentle bighorn rams and lambs lounging peacefully under shade trees while crisp autumn breezes drift over the nearby desert mountains.

Family Experience & Accessibility:
• Stroller Accessibility: Fully paved concrete pathways loop around the park's playing fields and scenic viewpoints, ideal for standard strollers, double joggers, and wagons.
• Nursing & Rest Spots: Well-maintained city park restrooms with baby-changing facilities, shaded park ramadas, and picnic tables overlook Lake Mead.
• Age Suitability: Welcoming all generations; strollers and leashed family dogs are warmly welcomed in the non-competitive fun walk waves.
• Sensory Tips: Peaceful park setting with natural open space; wildlife viewing requires children to maintain respectful quiet distance from the wild bighorn sheep.
