The Parks, Recreation & Forestry Department's Feature Friday

Each Friday, the Parks, Recreation and Forestry Department features something new for residents and visitors to learn more about. This weekends forecast has us excited! Today we want to share our sledding hill with you!

The sledding hill at Jennerjohn Park is located on the north side of the park and open daily from 7am – 10pm. Lights were installed last year to illuminate the hill from dusk until the park closes so that the fun doesn’t have to end just because its dark!

Sledding can be done on both sides of the hill. The north side of the hill has a distance of 332 feet a slope that drops 35 feet. The south side of the hill is slightly smaller with a distance of 200 feet and while a slope that drops 22 feet. Both sides have a slope over 10% (a black diamond ski hill is over 40% slope!) making it fun for all ages!
