Wheaton Park Winter Activities Spotlight

The weather has certainly thrown some curve balls over the last couple weeks and with the cold weather we were able to make ice in Wheaton Park this year.

So if you are looking for winter activities come out to Wheaton Park 40th Street Entrance and take part in the winter activities available for all ages. 

  • Ice Skating – Rink is open for the season and located next to 40th Street parking lot
  • Sledding and Snowboarding – Follow our trail map and trail signs from the 40th Street parking lot
  • Walking/Snowshoeing Trails
  • Snowmobile Trail Access

Don’t have a sled for sledding?  Feel free to use one from our sled borrowing station. 

 

At this time we would also like to thank the following business and groups for helping provide these recreational opportunities and amenities in the Town of Wheaton.  #community

  • Solhawk Dairy – Providing ice rink liner.
  • Park Volunteers – Rolling out ice rink liner and getting it set for water.  Also shoveling the ice rink.
  • Wheaton Fire & Rescue – Handling water needs for the ice rink.

  • BSA Troop 71 Elk Mound Eagle Scout Grady Larson – Adding the sled borrowing station and bench seating for sledding hill viewers.
  • Girl Scout Troop 3365 Elk Mound – Adding bench seating for ice rink viewers.
