Lafollette Park
Picnic Areas:
There are three picnic areas to choose from. All three picnic sites feature plenty of picnic tables to accomodate your group and are all located in shady areas for comfort on those hot summer days. Picnic Site #3 also includes the LaFollette Park pavilion.
Pavillion:
The pavilion is an excellent location for any party or family reunion! Within its 48' x 28' rentable space, the pavilion features plenty of tables and chairs, a full kitchen and a coffeemaker. It is wheelchair accessible, although the restrooms are not. Street parking is available. Rental is available year-round except on election days and the days before election days. Hours are 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
Athletic Facilities:
If you enjoy softball, kickball, tennis or basketball, LaFollette Park is a great place to gather your friends together for a game or match. Three softball/baseball diamonds are available with a backstop fence and bleachers for your fans. LaFollette Park also offers three tennis courts at no charge. Finally, four basketball hoops offer you plenty of opportunities to hone your playing skills, also free of charge.
Playground:
A park wouldn't be complete without a playground, and LaFollette Park offers plenty of equipment for kids to enjoy. With swings, monkey bars and slides, kids will have no trouble keeping themselves busy and having fun with friends. With all of the equipment located in sand, kids will stay relatively protected from falls.
Walking Paths:
For walkers, runners and bikers, there are blacktop walking paths that surround and go through the park.
Wading Pool:
During the summer, LaFollette Park wading pool is open, offering a way for very young children to stay cool! Restrooms are available off of the pool area.
A community organization committed to the preservation, protection and promotion of LaFollette Park.
