Park Permits & Park Building Rentals

Park Permits
If you’re planning a gathering at the park be sure to reserve your picnic space first! Picnic areas are available to the public on a first come first served basis unless otherwise reserved. Only a permit secures your exclusive use. Picnic permit fees are based on a maximum of 6-hours and the maximum number of people in your group. Maximum limits vary by location and groups may not exceed the limit. No changes on permits.
