Overview
       
   West Windsor is home to a plethora of parks, open spaces, and recreational facilities that serve the community. From the small parks that dot the landscape - such as Duck Pond Park off of Meadow Road and the tiny Dey Forest Park along Carlton Place to the grand landscape of the West Windsor Community Park and Mercer County Park, a significant amount of land in the township has been set aside for recreation. 

​   The beginnings of West Windsor's recreation goes back hundreds of years, to the earliest settlement. Children have always had a need to play, and have always found ways to do so. While no actual documented evidence of a snowball fight, game of tag, or swimming hole within the township's borders from the 1700s or 1800s exists, it's hard to imagine these events not taking place.

   Hunting was, and still is, a popular pastime in West Windsor. Pictures from the archives show a variety of trophies from expeditions over the years. Both Grover Cleveland and Woodrow Wilson, friends of Walter S. Grover (who owned the mill in the village named after his family) often hunted around the hamlet.
