Hamilton Township's Veterans Park

Hamilton Twp.'s Veterans Park is located centrally in Hamilton Twp., next to Robert Wood Johnson Hospital.

The park consists of 333 acres and was built in 1977 in honor of our war veterans.

There are miles of walking paths, picnic areas and rest stops and athletic fields, along with a wonderful play area [many hours were spent there with my children when they were young]

The west side of the park features a large lake with a beautiful fountain; it is the home to fish, ducks and geese.

The north side of the park features a large tennis complex, soccer and softball fields.

Veterans Park hosts the annual September fest, which draws 100,000 people for old-fashioned family fun.

There are also holiday fireworks displays and concerts along with a Civil War Reenactment complete with encampments following the Civil War era.

Veterans Park is opened year round and is a great place to walk, run, roller blade and get pent up energy out of the kids and/or dog.

There are several developments surrounding the park and within walking distance ncluding: Abbot Commons, Society Hill I and II, Grandview Arms, Briarwood, Evergreen, Briar Mannor.
