  Here's what you need to know: Parking: Lot (shared with the bordering middle school) Age range (playground): 3+ Sidewalks: One from the parking lot to the playground. Another from the school that goes by the playground all the way to the end of the school property (a couple baseball fields down). Seating: One bench by the playground Bathrooms: None Picnic tables: None Grills: None Sports field: An open field, a basketball court (on the school's property), and several baseball fields If there's one word to describe Edgerton Park, it's "big." This playground has a surplus of slides, ladders, bridges, monkey bars, and tunnels, making it perfect for kids who are comfortable climbing and maneuvering such obstacles. The remarkable range of obstacles available kept my kids entertained well into an hour of play. Edgerton is laid with pebbles and has three sections: a playground, a swing set (far past the playground and only regular swings, unfortunately), and another section whose purpose I couldn't identify (see pictures). It's built alongside Edgerton Middle School and is tailored for kids that age and size. Nevertheless, my 4-year-old had a blast (most of the times I didn't know where she was!). My 3-year-old needed help from time to time (there's a smaller section that was easy for him to navigate but the rest of the playground, which he also wanted to try out, was more challenging for him height-wise) and my 15-month-old needed a lot of help. At the end of our play time, my kids said they had a blast. We were there for nearly an hour and even by then they were reluctant to "leave already." Because Edgerton Park is used regularly by students at Edgerton Middle School, its equipment is well-worn. One slide had a huge crack in it, rendering it useless. Several of the steps were also cracked and rusted. Be sure to keep an eye out for safety hazards when visiting. Furthermore, since Edgerton Park is used by the school on a regular basis, either plan to accommodate students outside for recess or avoid school hours altogether (we went on a weekend).

  Clean bathrooms. A good pitstop for bikers on the trail.
