The City began acquiring the property in 1986 and applied for an Outdoor Recreation Grant through the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources in 1989 for additional property acquisition and park additions. A park master plan was developed in 1990 and included athletic decks, parking areas, three picnic shelters, a sand volleyball court and trails. A playground was installed in 1993 and though depicted in the original master plan, a performance stage was not constructed until 2022. The playground was replaced in 2009 and shelter A underwent significant repairs after being struck by lighting in late 2020.
The park hosts a number of annual events including the Live at the Lake Concert Series, Pan-O-Prog runs and the summer Youth Fishing Contest.
What is the Adopt-A-Park Program?
Adopt-A-Park is a public service program for volunteers to pick up litter, identify safety hazards and to freely communicate other issues associated with a particular park.
Program Guidelines
Adopt-A-Park is open to community groups, civic groups, churches and individual citizens for a minimum period of one year. Commitments may be for a longer term, preferably at least two years. Park sites are chosen on a first-come, first-served basis with priority given to past Adopt-A-Park participants. For more information about adopting a park, contact Lakeville's Parks Administration by email.
