Dashing Through Dicken
The City of Ann Arbor has a LOT of parks, so we've broken them up into convenient groups! For this badge, you'll be in the DICKEN area!
In order to get this BADGE, you'll have to visit some of the beautiful Dicken sites and find the main sign for each park! Your codes will all be based off the sign itself or the nearby surrounding area!
Some of these are neighborhood parks with little to no parking. Please be respectful of the neighbors of these parks, and PLEASE be safe and aware of traffic when seeking out these park signs! You've got all summer to find these, so no rush!
Below are the SPECTACULAR places this badge will lead you to with the links to the city pages for each park in alphabetical order, and here's a map to help you find each sign. Use this map to know EXACTLY where each sign is! Street addresses and google maps can be misleading! Plan your own route and be careful!
Can't make it to these places or has construction season foiled all your park exploring plans?? No worries! Contact us for a handy guide to get your CODES!
Want to see where we'll be leading you in the Park Explorer series this summer? Here's a map of ALL the locations from ALL the badges!

That is a great idea. The staff was kind enough to send the images, but some of the maps are a little hard to zoom in om

For Las Vegas Park the clue indicates the first line of text on the sign, but it's actually both lines.

A lot of the city parks have more than one sign, so it's possible there is more than one sign at this park too! If you go to the sign indicated on the map above, it is the first line of text only! If other players find the same sign you did, I'm sure this note will be helpful though! Thanks for letting us know and thank you for playing! :)

is there more than one sign for churchill downs? I found only one on google maps, but there is no emblem on it.

A lot of these parks have multiple signs! I will email you a handy guide with pictures of the park signs to help you get your badges! :)

I'm also confused by the Churchill Downs Park sign. I see the sign exactly where it's indicated on the map, but no emblem. Thanks!

I visited Hansen Park today. I parked my car nearby and walked to several nearby parks; it was a great time for me and my dogs. I was sad to see so much dog "poop" at Hansen Park, but I placed a request into SeeClickFix about it. I can't believe I've lived in Ann Arbor for much of the last 27 years and never visited Dicken Nature Area; it was delightful.
