Picnic Shelters & Group Picnic Areas

Due to the COVID19 response we, unfortunately, are unable to accept picnic shelter or group picnic area reservations for the 2020 season.

Picnic shelters & group picnic area reservations for 2020 season are canceled due to COVID-19 cleaning requirements. People with existing reservations in 2020 will be contacted between 6/18 – 6/25 via email. Shelters are first-come-first-serve (permits granted by the Park Board can overtake shelters). Please be advised bathrooms attached to shelters are not open. We recommend using table cloths on picnic tables. Keep groups at picnic shelters below 10, practice social distancing, clean up all trash left by your party, and we recommend wearing masks.
