## About

Spanning 200 serene acres along the Ten Mile River in Pawtucket, Slater Memorial Park is the oldest and largest public park in the city, offering families a charming winter escape. Families can wander along paved paths bordering peaceful duck ponds where swans and waterfowl gather, and explore the grounds of the historic 1685 Daggett House—the oldest standing dwelling in Pawtucket. The park features Daggett Farm with friendly farm animals, extensive paved multi-use paths linking to the Ten Mile River Greenway, wide open meadows for winter strolls, and a large playground where children can burn off energy on crisp sunny winter afternoons.

Family Experience & Accessibility:
• Stroller Accessibility: Wide, level paved pathways weave through the entire park, pond perimeter, and historic district, accommodating strollers and wheelchairs easily.
• Nursing & Rest Spots: Numerous park benches along the pond and garden pavilions; restrooms located near the park office and recreation center.
• Age Suitability: Welcoming to children of all ages, from infants in strollers to active elementary-age kids exploring farm grounds and playgrounds.
• Sensory Tips: Cheerful park setting with squawking waterfowl, open pond vistas, and historic stone walls; easy parking close to walking loops.
