Uniontown Community Park is always a fantastic place to spend an afternoon. This park has much to offer including a pond to fish in, a volleyball court, a horseshoe pit, a playground, and a half-mile walking path! What a great afternoon could be spent picnicking at the park with friends and using all the amenities that the Uniontown Community Park has to offer! Challenge yourself to a longer hike at one of our other local parks.

Be sure to get involved this weekend with all that Hartville has to offer! These community events are sure to bring help to those in need and smiles to those who participate!
