Woods Edge Park Improvements
Ribbon Cutting Fri. 10/27  11 AM
Montgomery Township municipal officials are pleased to announce a ribbon cutting on the newly improved Woods Edge Park on Friday, October 27 at 11 A.M. All interested members of the public and press are invited to attend this rain or shine event.  Mayor Ed Trzaska and Recreation Director Karen Zimmerman will offer remarks prior to cutting a ribbon to reopen the upgraded park facility.

Among the improvements to the park completed this year are the resurfacing of two tennis courts; the resurfacing of the basketball court and pickle ball court; the installation of two new playgrounds; a new shade structure; and refurbishment of the restrooms. An attractive new park sign will be installed prior to the celebration.

Woods Edge Park is a pocket park located within the Woods Edge neighborhood in southern Montgomery Township, near Princeton off Cherry Valley Road.

Directions:  The address is 66 Harvard Circle, Princeton NJ 08540. Woods Edge development does not have a sign identifying it as such at its entrance. It is located off Cherry Valley Road approx. 1/8th mile west of Rt. 206.  (The next major cross road if you continue past on Cherry Valley Rd. to the west is Cherry Hill Road.)

From Rt. 206 going west on Cherry Valley Rd., take a right onto Rutgers Lane into the neighborhood. Follow Rutgers until it ends in a T. Make a left onto Harvard Circle. Follow this circle around until you see Woods Edge Park on your right. Parking is available at the park's parking lot or on the side of the street.
