Swinford Park is super fun! There is seriously something for everyone here, for all ages and…read moreabilities. There are slides, swings, several climbing structures, a gigantic play structure that looks like a barn, a wagon and a fire truck to sit in and pretend to drive, teeter totters and best of all: a corn maze! The maze is not made with real corn, but it is a maze and it has corn painted on it. There are also huge, wide-open fields that would be perfect for flying a kite, or just running across. I like this park because there are plenty of benches to sit at, and lots of trees to find shade under. It's also really, really big and spread out, so even though there were a lot of kids here when we visited, it didn't feel crowded because all of the rides and equipment were spaced a good distance away. We mainly visited the playground area, but I also saw a baseball diamond not too far away from the playground, as well as walking paths that went through the park. Across the street (which was also part of the park) there was a skate park where kids could ride their skateboards. There were also picnic shelters right by the playground with several tables and grills.

This park had a lot of the typical park structures. We stayed for a little while, but then moved on…read moreto a park with more to do. I overheard someone who was there with a child with braces on her legs say in disappointment that she wished there were a swing for her daughter and it saddened me as I realized that for her daughter there really wasn't much to do.. it would be nice if all parks took all children into consideration when building their playground.

This is a great park that lies just north of downtown Plainfield. The park has been maintained…read morewell and has just about everything you could want from a park. The playground is enormous! There is a section for toddlers (under 5) and another for kids (5-12) but they are right next to each other so that parents can keep an eye on both sides of the area. So much equipment that kids should have a blast trying out each one. Benches and picnic tables can be found all around the playground square, so you can select sunny or shaded relaxation. Oh, and the picnic tables are designed so that a wheel chair can roll under on one end so that guests don't have to worry about climbing over a bench seat. The paths are paved and there is a permanent shelter (with a fire place!) as well as two more canopy type shelters with picnic tables. The grill for the permanent shelter is oversized, so that could make it easier for a grill master. There are sports and activities available too. Tennis, baseball, and horse shoes all have their designated areas. A permanent restroom building lies between the playground area and the ball fields. Another perk is the parking lots are large and paved. For those who like hiking, trails run by the park that are part of the extensive Plainfield system. Sure, there isn't a pool or splash park, but with so much else to do and so much shade, I don't think kids will miss them. Review #606

If you love lots of shade while watching the kids play then you'll enjoy Franklin Park. Named for Charles "Sap" Franklin, the town's first marshal, the park encompasses 35 acres, and like Friendship and Hummel Park, is located along White Lick Creek. This is our 4 year old nieces' favorite park and always want to play here regardless of the weather. This is a great park for family reunions with so many amenities for all ages. Amenities in the park are two shelter houses, 2 lighted tennis courts, a skateboard area, 4 lighted ball diamonds, 2 concession stands, playground and a private play area for little ones under six with a volleyball pit and several horseshoe pits. Easy access to White Lick Creek Trail or Vandalia Rail Trail and the clean restroom at Franklin Park are convenient to trail and water fountains outside restrooms. Plainfield's youth league baseball programs are played on the ball diamonds so stop by and catch a game. Just follow the sounds of the crowd cheering and choose your team.

It is also home to the Avon HS Cross Country team. It the front they have a full basketball court that is pretty decent, a sand volleyball court, a gazebo, and 2 covered shelters that you can reserve. Each shelter has grills and picnic tables. There are also picnic tables scattered around the area, an open field that is well maintained, and a small lake. The lakes are rumored to be stocked, but I did not see anyone fishing. You will also find a very nice playground up there that has a jungle gym for small kids and one for bigger kids. The ground is covered with shredded tires. The playground also has a cargo net to climb, tire swings and regular swings. if you venture to the other part of the park in the back that is where you will find over 5 miles of paved trails, a splash pad, an outdoor fitness area, a reception hall, an small amphitheater, another lake with a fountain, 2 more covered shelters with picnic tables and grills, restroom facilities and another playground. The playground is very nice and is lined with a rubbery surface and has equipment including swings, monkey bars and other stuff that looked like it was purchased from Ikea. This is an awesome park and a great part of the Avon community. They have tons to do and can keep an entire family busy for hours. This place is very scenic and has some picturesque bridges and landscape. It is also home to the historic 1876 Whipple Iron Truss.

Being right next to Avon's somewhat newer town hall, this park definitely goes all out with amenities - an 18-hole disc golf course (elevation issues for those with disabilities), a Bocce court, three bodies of water (9-acre Town Hall Park Lake, a small pond to the east of the lake, and 3-acre Sycamore Lake), paved trails, picnic tables, ping pong tables, playgrounds, restrooms, shelters, AND the only free, public outdoor radio control race track in Hendricks County! The bocce ball court is located along the path connecting the park to the Kroger Shopping area. NOTE: Balls are not provided. Take your own balls. (He says with a slightly naughty grin). Fishing is allowed, however, Avon Town Hall Lakes are catch and release only and do require a state fishing license. No nets are allowed. Swimming, wading, ice fishing, and ice skating are not allowed on the ponds. The "200 Years" sculpture was commissioned or the bicentennial. If you know my work on children's issues, you can probably guess that I would appreciate the park's "Angel of Hope" memorial dedicated to parents who have lost children. It's a memorial I find myself visiting any time I'm in Avon (which is less often these days as I'm down to one surviving family member, but most of my family lived in Putnam County just west). I do find that sometimes Avon can be a bit slow to clear brush from the trails, a fact that can be difficult for wheelchair users. However, for the most part I'd easily call the trails wheelchair friendly. I'd just be more careful during Fall and Winter months especially. Parking is super easy here, shelters can be rented, and the playground areas are always kept clean. Avon is a lovely little community and this park really reflects the pride they take in their community.

First the website can be a bit weird and if you are getting day passes and it keeps saying its 'timing out' you need to make a Plainfield recs account first and it stops being weird. On my visit i purchased tickets/admission on the website because i could not tell if i could get in on location or not. Once we got thru the check in process we went to see the indoor pools first.... Well they were closed. OK... Went outside and its pretty expansive and clean. One of the non-tube slides was down as well as looks like 1/3rd of the exterior swimming items were down for what looked like cleaning since i saw staff working on it. From the maps view basically the huge lazy river side. As a non-resident the pricing i feel was a good value for goofing off in the water for roughly 3 hours. Onsite food isn't anything to rave about but at least it is available and it was not crazy prices. Tons of life guards doing an awesome job from what i could tell while watching the people watching the rest of us so i felt super safe and confortable they were keeping an eye on all the kids. I didnt grab any photos because i dont really like publishing anything with people in it. You will be pleastly surprised with what is in the water park area let alone the other things you can do here. I am sure i will be back again and again.
