Situated among the trees of the Angeles National Forest in Kagel Canyon, Dexter Park offers local residents a place to gather and enjoy nature. The park features a community building and gymnasium where neighbors celebrate the holidays, play games, and enjoy potluck luncheons. The 40-acre park was donated by Nathanial Weaton Dexter and was dedicated in 1959.
