I
grew up playing at Broken Arrow Park as a toddler, eating at church functions in the shelter, playing baseball on the field every week, climbing up the rocket ship (that has since been dismantled) and I even did my Eagle Scout Project in the park. In the spring of 2013, I chose this location to take off for my first hot air balloon ride in our company balloon where we floated over the University of Kansas and landed behind the USD 497 main office. The broken arrow is a symbol of peace and became the name of this 20 acres that was donated in 1961 through the Department of the Interior adjacent to Haskell University.
