Preview Post: Third Ward Park

Third Ward Park in Antigo has a small climber and lots of space.  They flood it for skating in the winter.  I don't see any sort of shelter or much for shade trees.

There is a seasonal port-a-potty.

Wirth Park

Brookfield's Wirth Park has so much to offer!

 

We spent most of our time in the Tot Place (playground)...

 ...but we did also meander down this interactive path to get to the bathrooms.  On the way, we encountered a little league baseball game as well.

From what I can gather, we only saw a small portion of this fantastic park.  There are various trails, volleyball & tennis courts, soccer fields, ball diamonds, an ice rink in the winter, and a pool in the summer.  Wow!  We sure enjoyed ourselves when we were there!

Wirth Park does have bathrooms.

Skate Express

Ah, a good old-fashioned roller rink!  My kiddo had such fun skating for the first time!  She's been taking ice skating lessons, so I was curious how the roller skates would go.

Let's just say she appreciated when a "walker" became available :)

And, yes, in case you were wondering, they do have the requisite roller rink carpet.
