40 Parks in 40 Days - Ashwood Park

40 Parks in 40 Days is a series highlighting the parks of the Palatine Park District. Additional photos can be found at www.facebook.com/palatineparks.

Ashwood Park is located at 710 N. Wren Avenue in Palatine. The 3.917 acre park was acquired through a donation in 1960. Amenities include access to the Palatine trail, a playground, a 16 X 16 shelter, soccer/football fields, baseball/softball fields and a basketball court. Beginning next week, demolition will begin on the existing playground and a brand new playground will be installed.

The mission of Palatine Park District is to provide a variety of safe, enjoyable and affordable parks and recreation facilities and activities that will enhance the quality of life by promoting good health and well-being for all residents and visitors of the Palatine Park District.

Local Voices contributor Joan Scovic is the Marketing & Sponsorship Coordinator for Palatine Park District.
