Cene's Four Seasons Park — Attraction in Shorewood

Cene's Four Seasons Park is nestled into the heart of Shorewood. Inside this 1 1/4 mile perimeter of scenic landscape is an array of year-round outdoor opportunities that an individual or whole family can enjoy. Round the bases, play soccer, play pick up b-ball, tennis, use the walking paths with circuit training machines, bring the kids to the park, run up the sledding hill and hang out on the back of it to watch a beautiful sunset. Also in the summer there are events through the park district and the annual Shorewood Crossroads Fest. This place is a party in a bottle. In fact, I would venture to guess that If you're not having fun here I would say that it's your fault and you've brought shame upon your family. So don't do that. Because you have to live with that shame for the rest of your days. Well that's all I have from here, so until next time this is Robbie the Review Guy wishing you and yours safe travels on each of...

The bathroom facilities are fenced off to provide privacy and host several (Porta-potties), which were very clean and were situated right next to the parking lot, so you can take care of business before you play. It was a glorious, warm day with many of our church members in attendance at the event. We had prayer and church in the park. Our pastor prayed and laid hands on each student prior to handing out the book bags with back-to school supplies. Lunch was provided. Game and...

I and my family visited this park the other day, looking for a geocache. We were impressed by the size and diversity of activity spaces presented in this park. The park is dominated by a large hill, which I'm sure gets a great deal of use for snowboarding, sledding, etc in the winter. Another well-used portion of the park are the basketball courts, which appeared to be in good condition. There is a well-kept playground for the young ones. Overall, I would say this is a great public park for general use.

There are some areas that could use a little upkeep, however. When I and my family were at the top of the hill, there was a fair amount of trash, underwear, empty cans hidden among the underbrush. It would be my guess that this hill is a great makeout spot, as the physical evidence shows. Other than that it's a great...
