For large groups who want a Mother’s Day Picnic in the park, the Ramadas can be reserved ahead of time by contacting the Parks and Recreation department at (480) 816-5100.  No reservation?  No problem.  Picnic anywhere around the 1.25 mile walking path surrounding Town Lake. Thirty five acres of grassy hills invite you to spread a blanket on sunny knolls or under the shady trees…by the splash park, playground, or a comfy bench with a Fountain view, whatever suits Mom’s fancy.

If dining out is your way to show Mom that you appreciate her, Fountain Hills has lots of opportunities from casual diner fare to elegant Country Clubs.
