Right smack dab in the middle of Avon sits Nottingham Lake. The area plays host to a number of outdoor activities such as jogging, hockey, ice skating, and broomball. In the summer when the water melts, Nottingham Lake is a great destination for fishing, paddleboats, and jogging. Annually the lake hosts the Dunk-N-Dash, where racers must swim across the lake and then continue around the shore on a 5k run.
