Thornbury Park

Beautiful park!! We went on a beautiful day and the kids had a lot of fun. They have the 2-5 and 5-12 playground areas close to each other, which helps if you have kids in both age brackets. There are benches well placed in the shade and they have a sand pit area where you can bring beach toys and build and castles. It was a great find as we were just driving through and needed a place to get out and stretch our legs.

Phenomenal fun for all! A historic, scenic, and great time for families and kids. Very fun playground, nice paved walking track with historic boards, gazebo, basketball courts, tennis courts, baseball field, and a nice large pavilion! Check out my pictures. This place is one of the best in the area!

Awesome park, so much for the kids to do. So beautifully kept. Just please be careful , there is a wasp nest under one of the slides, I walked underneath to follow my son and they dive bombed my head trying to keep me away. Hopefully someone from the township will see this post and get rid of the nest so no one gets stung. Could be dangerous for an allergic child. (See pics)

Fantastic park with playgrounds, open space, ball fields, bathrooms and trails. The playground has handicap access and two handicapped accessible swings. There are two large playground sets, two sets of swingsets, and several small playground equipment including a tire swing. There is a very large sandpile for kids with lots of sandbox toys on the pile. The park has nice clean bathrooms. There is a "little free library" where you can take a or leave books. The park has a picnic pavilion (no stand barbacue grills provided) and a gazibo. The park has softball and a soccer/football fields, tennis courts and wide open field as well as a natural field near the woods. The park has a paved half mile trail around the park with a exercise station with parallel bars, pull up bar, sit-up bench and push-up bars. It has a quarter mile six foot wide dirt trail that is well marked and runs through the woods. There is a path around the open field that is popular with walkers. There is also a unmarked single-track trail off the norhteast corner of the field that goes through the woods and comes out on Derry Drive where the trail has a trail marker. The park holds an annual fishing derby, live music, movies, safety expo and the annual Founders Day celebration. About my only complaint is the lack of bird houses (the one I did see was in disrepair).
