About
W. Wayne Bunker Family Park is one of Clark County's most comprehensive regional parks, offering a remarkable range of recreational amenities that genuinely serve all ages — from toddlers on the playground to teenagers at the skatepark to adults on the disc golf course. Named in honor of longtime Clark County Commissioner W.
Wayne Bunker, the park reflects a commitment to multi-generational outdoor recreation.
The park's recreational lineup is impressively diverse. Young families gravitate toward the playground complex and seasonal splash pad, which provide classic outdoor play experiences appropriate for ages 2–10. The playground features age-appropriate structures for both toddlers and older children, with enough variety to sustain extended visits.
For older kids and teens, the skatepark is a genuine amenity — skateparks are relatively uncommon in Las Vegas's park system, making Bunker's facility a valuable draw for the skateboarding community. A multi-basket disc golf course meanders through the park's grounds, offering an accessible and free activity for families with older children who want structured recreational challenge.
Athletic fields, basketball courts, and tennis courts round out the sports facilities, ensuring that team sports enthusiasts have appropriate outlets. The park's size means these various activity zones rarely conflict, allowing families to split up by interest and reconvene at the covered picnic ramadas for shared meals.
The seasonal splash pad transforms summer visits for the playground crowd, providing water play relief during the brutal Nevada summer heat. The park's covered ramadas offer shade year-round and can be reserved for private events through Clark County Parks and Recreation.
