UPDATED: Please be advised that on Wednesday 7/22/26 (weather permitting) beginning early morning the Park Lake dam parking lot and surrounding areas of the path will be closed for critical tree work. We anticipate all areas will reopen in the afternoon.. Thank you for your patience as we continue to make our recreational areas as safe as possible for all..

Temporary small path detour at Park Lake near the dam out of an abundance of caution with dead tree limbs hanging overhead.. We plan to have the area fully reopened later next week. Thank you for your patience..
