Sledding at Gompers Park, house sales next door in North Mayfair


Saturday's snow and decent temperatures offered an optimal sledding opportunity.  We took the quick 10 minute ride west up Foster Avenue to Gompers Park. The sledding hills are adjacent to the Gompers Park Field House and swimming pool and across the street from the North Mayfair neighborhood. There are also a Jewel Store and strip mall nearby at Pulaski to warm up and get snacks after a good run.
