Snowstorm may spell sledding fun at Linett Park in Ansonia

Cold weather fun found at Linett Park.

"With a predicted multi-day snowstorm looming, beginning Sunday thru Tuesday, families seeking some early winter outdoor fun may want to consider sledding at Winter Playground Linett Park.

"The expansive hillside was cleared of overgrowth two winters ago, to bring back a decades ago popular park winter destination. 
It has proven to be quite the sledding joy for kids and adults. Currently about 200 feet in length, there is a connecting trail that
extends nearly 400 feet up to Prospect Street.

"Year one proved to be a very popular attraction while last year’s “snow bust” saw limited activity.

"Linett Park is located on Crowley Street, off of North State Street. On-site restroom facility, bleacher seating and plenty of parking also available. Sledding at the park is free daily dusk to dawn, weather conditions permitting."

ANSONIA - Better late than never. It appears the season’s first sled riding will begin today (Saturday) and if the forecast holds true, will be even better Monday after Sunday night's 

snowstorm.
The Linett Park hillside was cleared, widened, and extended since November but the only thing lacking was snow. 

It’s an ideal setup for families, kids, adults, and open to all Valley residents.

The city may even start up the fire pit, and  invite to Lucky Dog food truck to appear.

Linett Park is located on Crowley Street off of North State Street. There is plenty of free parking and restroom facilities are available.

Mayor David S. Cassetti reopened the hill for sledding last winter with great fanfare and attendance throughout.
