We took advantage of the mild Easter Sunday weather and strolled around the park and neighborhood today. The park is crisscrossed by the Rails to Trails hiking path and walking paths that take you through residential backyards and the Buckingham neighborhood, complete with its town green, gazebo and social hall. The playground was crowded with young families enjoying the Spring like weather. One thing that really bugged me was the total disregard some dog owners had for the numerous signs that stated, "No dogs are allowed on the playing fields". I counted four dogs running free (off leash) on these fields, so I guess those signs don't apply to those who want to disobey them.

Great setup overall, and clean bathrooms, but absolutely NO SHADE, and that includes the dugouts…read more These poor kids are playing in the heat and get to the dugout for no relief. I can only hope that there are plans (soon!) for some sun protection for the players and maybe a few trees here and there for the fans. Good food choices on-site and a couple of very close options which are walkable. Bring shade with you if you can and LOTS of water!!

It is not large but it packs a punch of multiple slides, climbing structures and brand new soft padding to absorb any falls. The playground doesn't have much shade so prepare for that on sunny hot days. Only thing noticeable missing are swings but the kiddos will get over it as there is so much to explore!

Picnics and ponds…read more Veteran's Memorial Park is a 21 acre park that has a whole lot of different activities available including football, basketball and baseball fields, several tennis courts, a playground for kids, a large and wooded picnic area and a swimming pool. There is even a small duck pond located in the park. Most of the facilities are in excellent condition except for the basketball court that has lots of long cracks in the surface from the ice and snow. Definitely time for some repaving. The fields are used by several different leagues but are open to anyone when not in use. In fact everything in the park is open to anyone except for the swimming areas which can only be used by town residents. The park gets very crowded in the summer, especially on weekends, and picnics and parties are very common here. The park can be loud and pretty chaotic with lots of kids running around and people playing various games but is always friendly and pleasant. A nice park that offers a whole lot of different things to do.

The bright colors will immediately captivate your children! The countless buckets and sprinklers are so fun. I especially love how there are parks and rec staff on site which also give you piece of mind in case accidents happen. One staff member even gave my daughter a little mermaid sticker which made her day! I also love the fact that this is completely gated so running around with a toddler isn't as stressful here. Would 100% recommend!
