What are people saying (AI review summary)? Recent reviews for Hickey Park indicate a highly positive reception to recent updates, particularly an 'amazing' new turf project for baseball and improvements to the pool's concrete, which customers appreciate. The pool itself is praised for being laid-back, suitable for all ages, and offering good value, with options for private parties. However, there are suggestions for improvement, specifically the need for a larger slide for adults and a significant increase in the number of available lawn chairs, as they tend to run out quickly after opening.

I'm glad to see the updates and changes that have been made after many years! I like that they've put in a slide, but they need one just a bit bigger for the adults! All in all it's nice to swim and not tear your feet up anymore on the concrete in the pool

Today was the first time I have been to Hickey since they completed the turf project. All I can say is WOW!!! It is amazing! My boys had such a great time playing baseball there today! Rusty, his team, and the city of Russellville have knocked it out of the park and really have something to be proud of!! Great job!!!

Such a laid back pool, all ages to enjoy. It's worth every penny. So much fun and you can even plan ahead and have a BBQ or a small party there.
