I hear the playground is so l large it's easy to lose sight of my child. Is that true?
The playground is very large, approximately 2 acres. There is no place on the playground where you will be able to view your child at all times. You will need to actively supervise your child or children at all times by following your child throughout the different areas of the playground so that they are supervised. We do have a couple of suggestions to make supervision easier:

• Visit during less crowded times (before 10:00am and after 3:00pm)
• Come with another adult
• Choose a place to meet if you and your child should become separated

Can I use the Picnic Pavilion if I do not have a reservation, or if it has already been reserved by someone else?
The Picnic Pavilion is available for use on a first-come, first-served basis. However, a patron without a reservation must yield to a patron showing proof of one.

How can I reserve the Picnic Pavilion?
Picnic Pavilion reservations cannot be made at Clemyjontri Park. Please see rental information and make a reservation here.

How far in advance do you have to make reservations to use the picnic pavilion?
Reservations should be made as early as possible to improve the chances you will get the date you desire. When not reserved, the shelter is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Additional picnic tables are located on the property outside of the picnic pavilion and are also available on a first-come, first-served basis.

When can I make reservations for the picnic pavilion?
