Both
shelters are located near the City’s only "playscape", Valplayso. The playscape
was built amid much fanfare in 1994 by community volunteers and was designed, in
part, by area elementary school children. There is a hand tile plaza and engraved
"stepping stones" making this unique playground an outdoor wonder for all ages.
Your
shelter reservation ensures a clean, safe facility protected from extreme heat and
rain. Ten picnic tables are provided for your private use; additional picnic
tables can be reserved (4 for $40 + tax). All shelters are equipped with 20 amp
electrical service. A "half barrel" grill can be rented for $15 plus tax. Recycle
bags are provided as well as garbage receptacles. Volleyball standards are available
at each park for use by all park visitors. Moonwalks, dunktanks, tents, canopies
and amplified music are prohibited.
