A Park for All Seasons

Way Park is the heart of a vibrant neighborhood on the west side of Northfield. It features: a musical playground; playground equipment and swings; pre-school equipment; a basketball court; picnic and grilling areas; a walking path; a warming hut and ice rink (seasonal); a small baseball/kickball diamond (seasonal); a large open field perfect for pick up soccer games and kite flying; and lovely rain gardens.

Yoga in the Park

Thanks to a Healthy Activity Grant from Allina Health Partners, the Friends of Way Park are offering six free yoga classes at Way Park with Melissa Sharpe as the instructor!

Classes run from 10–11am on the following mornings:

  • August 17
  • August 24
  • September 21
  • September 28
  • October 5
  • October 12
  • Rain date: October 19

  • Free childcare will be provided for children who do not want to participate. Bring a yoga mat if you have one. Some mats will be available for newcomers. The classes are open to the entire Northfield community and will be appropriate for all levels. If you would prefer to use a chair for yoga, please bring your own.

    The grant focuses on two items: physical activity and fostering neighborhood connections. We can't wait to see everyone there!
