With warmer weather around the corner it is time to get ready for shelter reservations.
This year we are starting the shelter reservation season with four shelters (three at Fourth of July Park and one at Harmon Park) but hope to add the two at Civitan Fitness Park after the Grand Re-Opening. We will keep you updated as to the date we will officially open those shelters.
Once on the registration website (ActiveNet) you will need to create a new account or ensure you are logged into yours; this will enable you to register for programs, events, and reserve shelters.
Shelters
Shelters are available for reservation from March 1 through October 31. If someone has not completed a paid reservation within that time frame and the shelter shows as available, it is on a âFirst Come, First Serveâ basis. Reservation are made by selecting ‘Facility Reservation’, entering your parameters (date, facility, etc.) and then you will be able to click the shelter you want then continue through the process of paying for the reservation. You need to have and be logged into your account to complete a reservation. Also, reservation fees are non-refundable.
The shelters are available for a half-day or full day. The half-day is 10am-3pm or 4pm-9pm, the full day is 10am – 9pm.
The only shelter that is on a different schedule is the Farmers Market Shelter at Rotary Park which is available year-round to reserve, but only for one time slot to account for Farmerâs Market days. Even though the Farmers Market runs May to October each year, we keep the reservation block at 1pm- 9pm. Please note: This shelter does not have any picnic tables; your reservation secures the shelter only!
For more information on the amenities at each of these parks please visit their page: Fourth of July Park, Harmon Park & Rotary Park(Farmers Market Shelter)
Gazebo
Don’t forget about the Leo Burks Gazebo at Harmon Park, the gazebo is available for reservation year-round. Reservations are available for 5-hour blocks at $150.00 each or the 10-hour block at $300.00. The hour blocks are set for the morning block of 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM and the afternoon block of 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM. Due to the nature of this facility, you can only request this facility online, once approved you are required to make the payment to confirm the reservation.
Reservations can be made through the same process as shelters; selecting ‘Facility Reservation’, entering your parameters (date, facility, etc.) and then you will be able to click ‘Request’ then continue through the process. We will be prompted to approve/deny the request for the facility. If your request is âAcceptedâ it will advise you to pay that fee. Reservation fees are non-refundable.
