Picnic Shelters

Park Shelter Use During COVID-19 Pandemic

  1. All City of Blaine park shelters are currently open for small household group use. The shelters are not cleaned or sanitized and shelter users must follow social distancing guidelines. Shelters are not currently available for group rentals. Shelter rentals will resume when large group gatherings of up to 150 people are allowed by state executive orders.

Blaine has four large picnic shelters that can accommodate groups up to 150.  These shelters are perfect for graduation parties, family reunions, team picnics, birthday parties, and more!  All other shelters are first come, first serve.  To reserve a picnic shelter, submit an online request OR print out our form.
