Summary

A City of Orange City Parks and Recreation video series showcased Mill Lake Park's features — including a splash pad and a 0.8-mile path — and noted the park was funded in part by a Volusia Echo Grant.

Maddie McAllister, presenter for the City of Orange City Parks and Recreation video series "Walk in the Park Wednesday," on video this month showcased Mill Lake Park at 207 East Blue Springs Avenue and said the park was supported by a Volusia Echo Grant. "Welcome to Mill Lake Park, 1 of Orange City's newest gems made possible through a Volusia Echo Grant," McAllister said.

The video, part of a series produced for Parks and Recreation Appreciation Month, described park facilities for family use, including pavilions with picnic tables, benches, a water feature, public restrooms and a splash pad. McAllister also noted a 0.8-mile path around the lake and wetlands intended for walking, biking and skating.

The segment emphasized recreational access and family amenities. According to the video, Mill Lake Park offers scenic lake views and wetlands and is located at 207 East Blue Springs Avenue. The presentation did not include a formal announcement of opening dates, operating hours or specific maintenance plans.

No formal city action, vote, or policy decision was recorded in the video transcript. The clip serves as an informational promotional item in a monthly Parks and Recreation series rather than a council agenda discussion or staff report.

Residents seeking more details on hours, rules, reservation of pavilions, or the Volusia Echo Grant's terms and reporting requirements were not provided those specifics in the video; those details were not specified in the transcript.
