On the north end of the park, there's a large play structure with swings, another swingset with a sand play area, a children's splash pad water feature and restrooms. The restrooms, in particular, are very helpful for families with younger kids, or visitors who are picnicking. The south end of the park includes a parking lot, the Hales Corners swimming pool, a rock climbing structure, and a baseball diamond. The south end also features tennis courts, a veteran's memorial and the park is adjacent to the Hales Corners Public library and the Ben Hunt cabin. The park stretches out over a large field space extending to the west, and crosses a small stream to another parking area and a large open hill often used for sledding. In the winter, the Park is home to the Allison Dudek ice skating rink. This summer the Hales Corners Park was host to the Sprecher beer garden, and the park is also home to Hales Corners' 4th of July festivities and fireworks, and Hales Corners National Night Out. Overall, it's a great park!

Gordon Park isn't all that big, but I am delighted it has been preserved. There are interesting…read morestone foundations and walls on the east end of the park that just beg for an explanation, including one circle that begs for rituals. When I visit with my nephews and niece, we imagine Druids feeling at home. Of course, in pleasant weather we have actually seen folks LARPing in medieval gear as if to prove us right. The splash pad is silent in fall and winter, but the playground remains active on sunny days. Off street parking is ample and soccer games are fun to watch, even if you don't have skin in the game for either side. Maybe Gordon Park isn't a big one or a famous one in the County's excellent park system, but it is so accessible -- you can just tumble out into Riverwest and Harambee neighborhoods from there.

I am writing to express my concern regarding the event held on Saturday, June 20, at Richard E…read more Maslowski Park. The conditions created by this event were completely out of character for our neighborhood and inappropriate for a small city park. The large crowds, excessive noise, and overall level of disruption had a significant impact on nearby residents and families. Of particular concern was the volume of traffic moving through our neighborhood. Numerous vehicles were speeding on residential streets, creating dangerous conditions for children, pedestrians, and families. The situation raised serious safety concerns for those who live in the area. I was also unable to bring my children to the park because of the environment that had developed there. The park was crowded with adults engaging in behavior that made it unsuitable for children, including loud music, profanity, smoking, and what appeared to be public intoxication. Public parks should remain safe and welcoming spaces for families, yet the atmosphere associated with this event prevented many residents from using the park as intended. In addition, I was surprised to learn that admission to the park required a $50 entrance fee, along with an additional $10 parking fee. As a Glendale resident, I have always understood Richard E. Maslowski Park to be a public park available for residents to enjoy. Being denied entry because I was unwilling or unable to pay these fees was frustrating and left me questioning how a public park could become inaccessible to the very residents whose tax dollars help support it. The person in charge, Terrell, was extremely rude and dismissive throughout our interaction. When I attempted to explain my concerns, he was unwilling to listen and did not give me an opportunity to be heard. His attitude made the experience more frustrating and left me feeling that my concerns were not take seriously. He is definitely not someone I would expect the city to have representing it. His behavior was unprofessional and did not reflect the level of courtesy and respect that Glendale residents should receive I urge the City to review the planning, permitting, security, traffic management, and enforcement measures associated with this event. Future events should be managed in a way that protects public safety, minimizes disruption to surrounding neighborhoods, and preserves reasonable access to public parks for Glendale residents.

This is an excellent park to take all ages of children.

There is plenty of open space between the play areas for kids to run around, and the benches and picnic tables offer a chance to sit and share a snack or lunch. If you visit the park during the day, don't forget your sunscreen as there are no trees to provide shade. This is a great addition to the Glendale community, and as a resident, I'm looking forward to going more often to enjoy music, the beer garden, and, of course, more time with family.

It's also across from the middle school which has it's own play structure. There are tennis courts, baseball diamond, and soccer goals. It is a perfect place to hang out with friends due to it being in the middle of a neighborhood and the recessed center makes it private. Coaches may come if they rent out these areas but usually your free to do really anything. One cute detail is that the middle school kids all put their hands in the concrete. Well see you there!

The large dog area had a big open space for socializing and play. It also had some agility equipment, so if you want to train your dog on an apparatus, this is the place to do it. In the large dog area, there are also some trails to enjoy with beautiful wild flowers. After the dog park, we walked around the outer edge of the full park which was wooded and mostly dirt trails (some paved near the entrance). You need a park pass to enter and we bought a day pass for $7. It was a nice stop!

The river bank is low and the river easily accessible via canoe or kayak. It is a favorite of the fisherman amongst us. On the northeast end of the park, you'll find a single tennis court, and though a net is up, only rarely will you see it in use. Up hill from the river, road side, there is a picnic shelter and playground, which on the other hand is frequently in use by little ones, Mom and/or Dad close at hand. Dog lovers can rejoice, your dogs are welcome here, though must be leashed. Owners are in fact frequently seen walking the grounds with their fury friends or having a game of catch. Nature enthusiast will find the trees truly grand and mystical. If you come at the right time, you might even be able to catch a glimpse of the resident white squirrel playing in the branches. Best to come and experience for yourself. Lots to see and explore. Take your time and open yourself up to a very unique experience. Don't forget to look beyond the surface, exercise your imagination and all your senses. A lot of history here. Enjoy.
