Confirmed from Veterans Memorial Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Small playground for local families, including swings and slides, plus basketball courts.

“Me and my wife stop to have ower lunch and it was very clean.”
Very cute park in Wood-Ridge area on Blvd very nice it has a gate for the kids very spacious enough room to run around and play tag with your toddlers and they close once the sunset goes down.
Nice little park.My Grandkids love it and there plenty of place to eat within walking distance.
It's a nice small park. I was walking around here for Wood Ridge day. A small festival but a lot of good food!!
