Middle Creek, which crosses beneath Holly Springs Road, travels near the Bridgewater, Woodcreek, Sunset Ridge, Brackenridge, Wescott, and Sunset Oaks neighborhoods.

Story Walk

During March, visitors at Womble Park enjoyed a story walk: Pages from Joel Harper’s children’s book “All the Way to the Ocean” were mounted on temporary signs along the trail, allowing visitors to enjoy a journey around the park while also following the journey of rainwater as it travels to the ocean.
