Ginger Hill residents have convenient access to multiple public parks. “There’s a Little League field over there, so a lot of people walk over and play pickup games or watch pickup games. It’s pretty close to Camden Park, which is the largest park in town. They do really big fireworks every year, so a lot of people in the neighborhood sit out in their front yard and watch the fireworks,” says Upton. The Little League fields are located on 4th Street and include three different-sized fields for various age groups. Camden Park is just south of Rock Island-Milan Parkway and includes several picnic shelters, playgrounds and softball fields. The park is also home to disc golf courses. Residents interested in a long walk or bike ride can visit the Hennepin Canal State Trail, part of a 104-mile linear park across the state. Locals can access the mixed-use trail on Big Island Road on the north side of Milan. The scenic trail runs alongside the canal and can be used for hiking, biking or running.A legacy of success at Rock Island Schools
