Reserving a Park Shelter
Park shelters are the ideal space for small outdoor gatherings like family or company parties. These rentals are for exclusive use of the shelter; to guarantee use, a reservation must be made. All rentable park shelters include tables and either permanent or portable restrooms. While the surrounding park and amenities are available to use, these spaces must be shared with the general public. Park shelter reservations are available year-round, seven days a week. Reservations can be made up to 6 months in advance.
Small groups, under 30 people, may use any park on a first-come, first-served basis. Planned events with more than 30 people must reserve a park shelter. Groups over 100 people are encouraged to rent a sports field. A shelter or designated picnic area may not be reserved for consecutive and/or recurring use (such as every Monday/Wednesday/Friday).
Shelters are offered as-is, rain-or-shine. Renters are required to leave the facility in good condition or pay the cost of cleaning and repairs. The renter is responsible for collecting and removing all garbage generated by the event. Please bring extra garbage bags. All renters receive a reservation card prior to their reservation date. It is the responsibility of the renter to place the reservation card at the shelter as early as 7:00 am on the day of their reservation to alert the general public of their rental.
If you’re interested in hosting an event for the public to attend, see the public event rentals page.
