Wentland Sports Complex
9400 Forest Hills Rd
Loves Park, IL 61111

Wentland Sports Complex was renovated in 2026 with a new playground, splash pad, and picnic area with shade structure. The complex is also home to a Rockford Park District skatepark, and the Harlem Community Center.

The renovated playground now includes an embankment slide, an accessible swing, an inclusive whirl, and one of the tallest playground structures within the Rockford Park District. A shaded picnic area was also added near the playground, along with a communication board, to enhance accessibility and support children who are nonverbal or have communication challenges. Wentland Sports Complex is also the site of the first spray pad in Loves Park, which features a bucket that slowly fills with water until it tips over, sending a refreshing splash down. With the push of a button, guests can activate a variety of new water play features.
