$100Sherrillbrook Park is the Town of New Hartford's main recreation park, with seasonal daily hours, pavilion rentals, trails and winter recreation, and a newly built playground that the town has publicly noted was still nearing opening during construction. Local official and quasi-official sources describe the renovation effort as aiming for a safer, more welcoming, and more inclusive playground. Public pages do not yet provide a complete equipment-by-equipment accessibility breakdown, but Sherrillbrook stands out as one of the region's strongest municipal playground improvement projects in a larger family park setting.
