Copper Mugger's Park, Lansing, IL

Copper Mugger's Park covers 32 acres at 185th Street and Burnham Avenue, offering residents direct access to three lighted softball diamonds, two full basketball courts, and a 1.2-mile paved loop trail that circles the park perimeter. The park also includes a 10-acre retention pond stocked for catch-and-release fishing, plus a playground area with modern composite equipment and shaded seating. Restroom facilities and a picnic shelter with electricity are located near the main parking lot, supporting organized events without requiring additional permits. The trail connects directly to the Old Plank Road Trail extension, allowing cyclists and runners to continue east toward the Indiana state line or west into Calumet City. Mature oak and maple trees provide consistent shade along the western edge, while the open fields on the eastern side remain unobstructed for organized sports. The park sits three blocks from the Lansing Municipal Center and within a half-mile of two grocery stores and a pharmacy along Torrence Avenue.
