This is a great space, tucked away in Glover Park next to Stoddert Elem School. Though not a large playground, there is a variety of equipment, geared more towards elem school-aged children and less towards toddlers or younger. One of the great aspects of this space is the open field right next to the playground equipment and the even larger open space and baseball field on the other side of the school building. Kids can play on the equipment or just run around for a bit! There are great tall trees for shade and a few picnic tables too. My nephews adore the play bulldozer and the slides!!
