Herkimer Town Park

The 2 ball fields at Herkimer Town Park are used from spring through fall by several Herkimer athletic teams for sports such as softball and soccer. There are tennis and basketball courts available, as well.

During the summer, there is a supervised daily program available for children that offers many activities such as board games, Wii video game contests, arts & crafts, a zoo mobile, the bounce castle, a tie-dye day and a make your own sundae day. A free summer lunch program is also offered daily.

There are several pieces of playground equipment for the kids to enjoy. In 2008, the Town received a grant from Herkimer County Healthnet, Inc. to buy additional playground apparatus for the purpose of promoting the health and safety of the children playing in the park. The Town of Herkimer has also received a grant to upgrade both ball fields and improve parking options at the park.

There is a small pavilion with four picnic tables and there are bathroom facilities available.

For requests to reserve the use of the Town Park facilities, please call Town Clerk at (315) 866-2690 or write in care of the Herkimer Town Board 114 North Prospect Street Herkimer, NY 13350
