Parks, Shelters, and
Reservation Information

The total acreage utilized for park purposes in 2007 is 851.5 acres. Of that, approximately 317 acres are being utilized for active recreation programs. 

Picnic shelters are available for group reservations at Delta Mills, Sharp, and Grand Woods Parks. Timeslots are 10 a.m.-3 p.m., 4 p.m.-Dusk, or 10 a.m.-Dusk. Groups may begin reserving the shelters for their gatherings on the first business day of the year for the dates of May 1-September 30. On the first business day wil will take walk-in registrations only starting at 7:30 a.m. and phone-in starting at 8 a.m., after which registrations may be made in person or by phone with payment due at the time of registration. If your event is rained out, we can reschedule your group for another date providing you call to reschedule the very next business day. Refunds will be issued for cancellations made at least 21 days before your event.

You may also use the shelters on a first come, first served basis, keeping in mind that if someone comes along with a permit showing they have it rented you will need to vacate the shelter. The pavilion at Grand Woods park is kept locked unless it is reserved. When renting the pavilion at Grand Woods, be aware that the door we unlock is around the left side, not the front door.

Electricity is available all year. The restrooms are all shut down in late October or the beginning of November.
