Centennial Park, Urban park in Champaign County, Illinois.
The 80-acre Centennial Park contains eight tennis courts, multiple baseball fields, soccer fields, and basketball courts spread across its western Champaign location.
The land for Centennial Park was purchased in 1959 for $161,800, followed by a strategic land exchange with the Champaign Unit 4 School District.
Prairie Farm within the park operates as an educational facility, presenting a traditional farmhouse, barns, and various farm animals to visitors.
The park maintains regular hours from 6:00 AM to 11:00 PM daily, offering parking access along John Street with specific guidelines for weekday use.
A time capsule named Bottles For A Century rests beneath the park since November 1977, scheduled for unveiling in November 2077.
