Wharton’s Concialdi Park
Rating: 4
East Sterling & Port Oram St
I-80 to exit #34A/Wharton. Turn onto Route 15 South. Bear right on E Dewey Ave. Turn left on N Main St. Right on East Sterling. Go to top of the hill. Playground and small parking lot are on your right just after Roberts St.
Nice new equipment. Playground is on the top of a very steep hill so it can be VERY windy! Overlooks a well kept baseball and football field. Two tennis courts not far away. Big rock climbing wall.
