There's also a baseball field, basketball court, hockey and tennis courts for older kids. There's not usually many kids using the playground (sometimes good and sometimes a bad thing). There's a nice rocking swing for adults to relax on and a cute little walking path from church road that they paved out a few years ago See rockledge calendar for up to date Easter/ 4th of July events: http://rockledgeborough.org/community-information/events-calendar.html Also Rita's water ice is a couple blocks away :)

It's generally clean for a small park full of pre-teens during the day. The few trees here are old and big, which is nice. For non summer camp days, it can be a pretty quiet & boring suburban place, pleasant yet creepy. It'll do if I don't want to drive too far for a bigger place.

They also have yoga in the park at nearby Rockledge Park through Twisted Monkey Yoga Studio. It has more climbing structures and running space for toddlers than nearby Ciegelkowski, but it doesn't have the baseball field or basketball/tennis courts that the other park has. Never usually that many kids there (if you want your child to have some playmates - there's Wall Park in Cheltenham or Champion Park or Fox Chase Rec in Fox Chase).

Easy to walk trails that run alongside the water and wind through the woods you don't have to wander long before the noise of the city is replaced by the sound of the breeze, ripping through the trees and the water rushing downstream. It is my quiet reminder that a little peace and stillness is easily found in our own backyard.

Has at least 6 lounge chairs, a few benches, and some umbrellas for shade. You can bring toys to play with in the water. Depending on age of child, might not even need swimmies since it's only ~1 foot high. They also have 2 playgrounds, a mini golf course, picnic benches basketball/tennis courts for older kids, a walking/jogging/biking path, fishing (need tag), pond, geese... I've been to birthday parties here when I was younger; they have picnic tables you can reserve. *Abington residents only - they have a security guard at entrance that checks IDs, but I feel like that's usually busier times, like weekends.

Hmm the playground is a bit more crowded than others (Burholme, Champion at Susquehanna,…read moreCiegelkowski) but it does have water play - water shooting out of the dragons in the summertime and a public pool. 2 climbing structures, 2 swing sets (1 for baby and 1 regular). The rec has summer camps, swim lessons, sports for kids such as cheerleading, softball, baseball, T-Ball, basketball, gymnastics etc. They have a concession stand too and events such as National Night Out in first weekend in August, where local businesses give out lots of free stuff (pizza, pretzels, water ice etc). They used to have ceramics on Friday nights when I was a kid, but am not sure if they do that anymore. There are ditches around the spinning play structure, which all of the kids fall in while trying to spin it. It'd be nice if they repaired that. Also not as much room to run around as other playgrounds, so go to the fields to do that.

Lots of trees and shade, so great for sunny days when other playgrounds are too hot. Though I…read moreremember this playground being cooler when I was a child - with horses you can ride, that also swung. Some of the structures are definitely different and interesting, meant for climbing. There are: - 2 swing sets - some baby swings and a disability swing. - 2 play structures, one with monkey bars - 2 climbing structures - see saw - gazebo and picnic tables so you can have lunch. - basketball court, though this IS in the sun - baseball field, also in the sun You park across the street. Next to the parking lot, there is a bridge which takes you down to the creek. I saw some people fishing there. I was confused getting there since I haven't been in a while, its on Tookany Creek Parkway to the right coming from Cotton rather than following the curve to the left. I put in specific location, so hopefully no one else gets lost :)

Intro to Rock Climbing with Valley to Summit on September 18, 2022…read more This was my second trip to Chickies Rock with VTS and it was wonderful! There were only 5 of us, so plenty of time to climb. Our Guide, Bob, was so patient, engaged and informative. I learned a lot of great things that I had not known before about clothing, ropes and technique. Bob was so patient with me and was there with his " green pointer" to help me over the tough spots. You should know that I am 74 years old and tho I have climbed indoors for a few years, my stamina was not that of the youngsters who were there! Nonetheless, it was a great time! I highly recommend Valley to Summit, this being my 3 rd trip with them. They Rock!

We were scheduled to do a 1/2 day ice hike at Ricketts Glen. I had spoken to the owner Dave and…read morelet him know of my disabilities. He asked a few questions, then determined that it should be OK for me to go on the hike. Shortly before the hike we received an email from Dave saying that because of the warm weather the trip would not have as much ice as it normally does. He offered to reschedule or refund our money if we wanted, but also said we could go if we wanted. We wanted. When I got there Dave and the guides were fantastic. Very personable. They were helpful but without being intrusive. One of them carried one of my forearm canes in his backpack in case I needed it. (This was to have one hand free for the ice axe.) The hike was great. At the end of the hike I asked one of the guides if he thought I could do the repelling they offer... he conferred with the owner and the lead repeller guide, and they agreed that I would be allowed to do that in the Spring. I highly recommend Valley to Summit for a great time. I look forward to a full day ice hike in February.
