EVANS RESERVE

Public BBQ

Evans Reserve in Geelong has an expansive oval locals describe as one of the best in Geelong. Flood lighting transforms evening activities. Children use the well-maintained playground while parents appreciate the undercover barbecue area with electric barbecues. Half-court basketball setup, netball ring, and space for impromptu footy matches or golf practice. Dog owners value the open expanses though waste management remains a community responsibility. A drinking fountain serves humans and canines, though reliability has been questioned. The carpark and toilet amenities lag behind the reserve's potential.
