The Town of Eden has secured grants from the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation, Erie County Legislator John Mills, Erie County Community Development Block Grant program and the Eden Community Foundation to bring a new all-inclusive playground to Swartz Field. Some of the fantastic features include a ZipKrooz (zipline) with a bucket seat, a wheel chair accessible We-Go-Round, sensory play center and new swings all on a rubber surface. We will be asking for community volunteers to assist in the assembling of the playground on September 20, 2025. More information on how you can volunteer will be posted on the Town of Eden website www.edenny.gov/recreation.
Swartz Field playground will be CLOSED starting Friday, July 18th to allow the removal of the old playground and prepare for the new playground. The remainder of Swartz Field will remain open, including the pavilion, baseball diamonds and soccer fields.
