Woodside Park

Click for Silver Spring, Maryland Forecast

8800 Georgia Ave, Silver Spring, MD. At the corner of Georgia Avenue and Spring Street. (map)

This neighborhood park has a playground, a tennis court, a basketball court, and handball courts.

The playground is suprisingly large for a park of this size, it has swings, and lots of things to climb on. Unfortunately, about half the equipment is in poor condition, this park really needs some TLC.

The tennis court, Basketball court and handball courts are lighted. You can spin a timer to turn the lights on until 11pm. There is also a nearby gymnasium that can be rented for basketball or volleyball.

There is a large fountain right on the corner of Georgia and Spring that is usually on during the summer.
