Event Venue:
The North County Recreation Picnic Pavilion is available to rent for Private Events including Family & Class Reunions, Graduation Parties, Retirement Parties, Memorial Gatherings, Birthdays, Showers, and other events.
The open-air soaring cathedral ceiling features beautiful, stained tongue and groove fir, giant wood beams, and rustic logs supporting the perimeter. Several half walls, full walls, and sliding walls help block wind and protect from inclement weather. The venue can host up to 275 guests with 3,650 square feet of space.
The Pavilion offers lovely, landscaped grounds, and a sweeping brick paver walkway leading to the foyer entrance lit up with two wrought iron Wagon Wheel chandeliers. Edison string lighting runs throughout for ambience, and the main entrance will soon feature a large water fountain with lighting. Tucked in the two corners on the west end of the Pavilion, there are two buffet counters with plug-ins, and a full built-in Bar featuring a “live-edge” wood bar, rustic corrugated metal siding, pendant lighting, and a built-in light up “Grease Board” for a “Special Drink” Menu.
Our beautiful event venue was built with all volunteer labor and funded with State & Local Grants, beginning in 2019. As a non-profit, all of the funds raised from the rental fees of the Picnic Pavilion go directly towards maintenance of the Youth Sports Complex and the equipment used to maintain the park. In 2023, over 660 children played sports at the Complex. We expect that number to rise as the population in the north end of Cowlitz County increases
