This beautifully landscaped and impressively-equipped park offers areas for play, barbecuing, swimming and spectating. It has a 3-mile fitness trail for walking, jogging, rollerblading and biking. Sports abound, it has softball fields, baseball fields, soccer fields, tennis courts, sand and grass volleyball courts, and a handball court – all right near Latrobe Memorial Stadium. Kids can enjoy the Creekside Nature Trail and kid’s play areas. Entertainment can be had at the bandshell.

Every year the park hosts an annual 4th of July Festival with fireworks and a carnival. Latrobe Memorial Stadium, home to the Greater Latrobe Wildcats, host to the Pittsburgh Steelers preseason game in August and many events throughout the year.

Playland II, the main playground, is a combination of wooden castle and play palace. There are slides, swings, mazes, and towers for the kids to climb. It’s popular and well-designed area that captures the imagination of children.

The Rogers-McFeely Memorial Pool is available during the summer months. You can purchase passes through the Greater Latrobe Parks & Recreation office.
