Park Rentals

The City of Watertown provides parks and recreational open spaces throughout the community for the use and enjoyment of all persons. The City's aim is to provide and maintain these facilities in a safe and sanitary manner for all.

Park Reservation Information

Park facilities can be reserved through the facility reservation process.

The City has adopted a reservation policy regarding the use and reservation of the Watertown park system. To ensure that each user of a public park / open space has equal opportunity to reserve games / practices / other events, requested dates for reservation during the summer months (May - August) are due to the park coordinator by May 1. To reserve a park facility, fill out the .pdf reservation application and return to City Hall at 309 Lewis Avenue SW.

Community Center Rentals

The Community Center was constructed to serve the general public by providing a facility conducive to the conduct of public business. Since public funds made these facilities possible, the general public is encouraged to use the Community Center. The Community Center is a minimal maintenance facility so it is expected that those who use the facility leave the building in a clean acceptable condition and ready for the next function.

Community Center Use - General Guidelines

  • The Community Center shall be generally available for use by area civic, charitable or non-profit organizations and for public and private meetings. It may also be used, subject to availability, for private parties and exhibition. It shall not be used for private or religious ceremonies or for private profit-making activities or any other activity not consistent with the general purpose of the building or these policies.
  • Use by religious groups, political groups or other special events shall require specific approval by the city council.
  • Areas available for use include meeting rooms A, B, and C, kitchen, hallways and rest rooms.

All of the usage guidelines, fees and special regulations for the Community Center rental are available in .pdf format.
