The park honoring this event was built by the local Rotary Club and is maintained by the town. There is only a very small model of the Goddard rocket at the site, but there is an extremely cool Polaris missile. [Seana Flagg, 04/29/2007]
[RA: The model is a true sized duplicate. The first successful rocket flight was made 1/2 east of the park by Goddard on Pakachoag Hill.]Nearby Offbeat Places
