The City of Laurens has several parks and shelters for people to enjoy.  They are open all year long and are available on a first come first serve basis. The downtown park located next to the swimming pool has play ground equipment for younger children and a shelter house for family gatherings and picnics

Memory Lane is a recently constructed downtown park built through donations by individuals and businesses. There are pergolas, stone tables and benches, a water fountain, stage, and drinking fountain. It is a place of reunion and reflection, a place for positive conversation, and a place to remember those who have contributed to the Laurens community.
