Ellettsville Town Hall Park

The new playground here is a solid upgrade, and honestly it’s become one of those spots where you’ll recognize half the neighborhood on a weekend morning. Kids from toddlers on up have plenty to do, and the open grass field means there’s room to actually run around without everyone being on top of each other. Grab one of the picnic tables if you want to make an afternoon of it — the benches and walking path give parents something to do while the kids wear themselves out. It’s quiet over here in Richland Township, which is half the appeal; you’re not dealing with crowds or parking headaches. Good community space, full stop.
