Picnic Shelters/Areas and Amphitheater Rental Multiple Use Discount!
A discount of 10% of the total rental fee will be applied to "long term" rental groups who submit a request for and rent a picnic area, shelter, amphitheater or gazebo for a minimum of five (5) days in the calendar year.

• A "multiple use" rental will be defined as any individual or group that submits a picnic rental application requesting a minimum of five (5) rental dates.
• Groups who do not request a minimum of five rental dates on the same request will not be granted long term status, and thus will not be eligble for receiving the 10% discount.
