Picnic shelters at David Douglas Park and Leverich Park are available for general public use free of charge on a first-come, first-served basis, unless reserved for an event. Reservations are only required if use of the shelter is part of a permitted event. A Park Use Permit is required to hold an event at one of these parks.

Make a Reservation

Picnic shelter reservations can be made online, by phone or in-person at Firstenburg and Marshall community centers for events taking place between May 1 and Sept. 30. Reservations for the 2025 season open Feb. 5 at 9 a.m.

Cancellation Policy

Picnic shelter reservations and Park Use Permits canceled one month or more before the rental date will be refunded 100 percent of the fee, minus a $10 processing fee. Reservations canceled 1 to 4 weeks before the rental date, will be refunded 75 percent of the fee, minus a $10 processing fee. No refunds will be granted if the reservation is canceled less than one week before the rental date.

Park Use Permits

A Park Use Permit gives you permission to bring special items and equipment into the park and describes any approved special services or park staff assistance. To get a Park Use Permit for LeRoy Haagen, Marine, Marshall or Fisher Basin Parks, you must also have the picnic shelter reserved. A Park Use Permit is different than a picnic shelter reservation and requires an additional fee. 

Types of activities that require a Park Use Permit include but are not limited to:

  • Inflatable bounce house(s)
  • Pop-up tents or extra tables/chairs
  • A wedding
  • Amplified music or a loudspeaker
  • A public event such as a sporting event, charity activity, festival or concert
  • Commercial photo shoot or filming
