Park Use - Frequently Asked Questions

Can I decorate the park facility?
Decorations are allowed; you must clean up before you leave the grounds. Tacks, nails or staples are not allowed, as they damage the wood. Please have someone in attendance after the park facility is decorated to prevent vandalism. The City is not liable for any vandalism to your property.

Do you have more information on renting the Island Gazebo?
The gazebo has an electrical outlet for your use in the ceiling at the south end. Public Restrooms are available at the west entrance to the island.

May I reserve the facilities at Howe Memorial Field (formerly Old Athletic Field)?
Public restrooms are available in the concession stand at Howe Field. On weekends and evenings, a key may need to be picked up during regular business hours at City Hall or the Public Service Department. Please call (517) 663-8118 extension #8109 or email kbyerly@ci.eaton-rapids.mi.us to facilitate this reservation.
