Upcoming Events Information
Picnic Shelter Reservations Begin 8 a.m. on Thursday, March 1
Due to the large number of people waiting in line on this first day of reservations we ask that those seeking to reserve a shelter please bear in mind that the Parks & Recreation Department does not condone or recognize any type of sign-up sheet for shelter reservations. The order is determined by numbers, handed out on a first-come, first-served basis by Parks & Recreation staff as participants enter the Parks & Recreation Building on March 1, 2012. Once a number has been secured participants are asked to wait in Room 115 until their number is called and the registration process can begin. Thank you for your cooperation.
New this year, there are 2 picnic shelters that can be rented at the Civic Center Parks on weekends! Civic Center Park Shelter #1 is a large shelter to the right of the playlot that has a maximum occupancy of 100 people. The Civic Center Park Shelter #2 is a smaller shelter to the left of the parking lot (between the Southfield Sports Arena and the playlot) that features seating for 50 people and is only available for rental on Saturdays and Sundays.
