Unparalled Facilities and Services
Besides Edina's great schools, my favorite thing about Edina is the
top-notch recreational facilities and services.
-
The 500-acre Braemar Park features a golf course
rated among the best public courses in the U.S. and an arena for hockey
and figure skating.
-
The Edina Art
Center offers classes in painting, pottery, photography cartooning
and other cool visual arts.
-
Centennial Lakes is 24-acre park and pond where
there's something to do every season. You can fish, ride a paddleboat,
watch radio control yacht races, play croquet, ice skate, or ride a
Norwegian ice sled.

facilities in the Minneapolis area. Among Edina's unique recreational facilities is Edinborough
Park, an indoor public park that features:
-
A junior-Olympic size swimming pool,
-
A running track and fitness area,
-
One of the largest indoor play structures in the U.S.
-
A 250-seat, Greek-style amphitheater.
-
Edinborough also has a banquet room called the "Great Hall" at which
I attended a co-worker's wedding and a four-year old's birthday party --
Fortunately, not at the same time!

Edina's Scottish Roots
Legend has it there were two opposing communities that made up this
area of western Richfield Township -- the Irish Cahill community and the
Scottish Mill community. When Edina became a village in 1888, those two
communities fought about whether to give the community an Irish Name,
"Killarney Lakes," or a Scottish name, "Edina." Find out how the Scots
won the Edina name game.
