Veterans Memorial Park

Great courts, lots of space to play in. They have tennis, basketball courts, big field for softball and baseball. Picnic areas and parks for kids to play in. Care to play some Bocce? They have that too! Lots of parking and nice walking paths!

The park has been updated. Very happy about those changes. However, it’s July 22nd on a 95 degree weather and they are trying to fix the sprinklers today. The workers continue telling all parents coming here in hopes for the kid’s to play in the sprinklers to wait an hour to fix the sprinklers, but then an additional hour is added to be fixed by 6PM. The workers left at 5PM and it’s now 6PM and still no sprinklers on, with no workers on site. Disappointed.

Every year there is a bergenfield resident appreciation day called family fun day. Free to residents. Free snow cones and cotton candy and rides for the kids. There are local performers and fireworks at night. Nice to see your neighbors and see who you are living amongst. The park is very clean but parking is a pain during games or events.

Large enough area for a group of kids, and parents. New play things added this year which is GREAT. Large vantage points to keep an eye out for the kids. Been going there for over 30 years now Kids and grandkids. Best time to go is either early before 1pm or at 3pm the day campers are there other times. If you want your child to play with lots of other children. Then the times of 1-3 would be great. Campers leave at 3pm. Shaded areas cooled by the trees.

Excellent place to host family and friends gatherings.
