| - Trent Park is a large complex that's home to a picnic area, kiddie play area, and the Las Vegas Sports Park. This review, however, is mainly for the kiddie area.
My three year old son was getting tired of the other spots we usual hit up, so we ventured to Trent park one Saturday. They've got a standard set-up: one area for toddlers and another for bigger kids. The bigger one has swings, slides, bridges... the kind of stuff you'll find at most parks to keep rugrats busy. The biggest selling point for this play area is that it's in a huge sand box. So, if you're coming here with the little ones you might want to pack up their shovels, rakes, and buckets so they can dig and make sand castles. Of course, that also means that they're going to make a big mess and their clothes will be full of sand when they're done.
I'm not sure if they have a water feature. There was a small area with elephant statues that may be a splash pad during the summer. I dunno.
There were plenty of picnic tables, each with their own BBQ grill. Several of the tables are covered and have signs that said you can call to reserve a table.
I didn't check out the sports complex, but they've got outdoor soccer fields, batting cages, a paintball field (check out www.lvpp.net), and tennis courts. I'll have to come back to see what's inside the complex.
3 Stars. Again, that's mainly for the kiddie area.
