Can I reserve a shelter for more than 10 people for a date later this summer or fall?

  • At this time, all shelter reservations will be limited to 10 people or less regardless of the date.  We will be following state protocols for gathering limits and will update this information as those protocols change.

Can I rent a room at the Rec Center or Summit Park? (Updated October 4, 2020)

  • Despite our typical rental opening date approaching on November 1st for 2021 rentals, we will not be accepting any new rental facility requests for rental rooms at neither the Recreation Center or Summit Park at this time.  When we are safely able to open our facilities and group gathering limitations allow, we will notify the public and we will begin taking reservations again.
