This new park in Eagle River has facilities for you to exercise, play casual sports, congregate with friends, and hold special events in open or sheltered spaces.

The two acre field surrounding the community building (township hall/Eagle River School) was an  open field for a long time. A tennis court was constructed north of the building in 1939. Playground equipment was added west of the building a few years later. The field east of the hall remained open except for temporary  baseball fields in the northeast corner. and a stage for the 1961 centennial. 
In 2018, the township lost control of one of its other parks in Eagle River.  In response to that loss, a recently-retired native of Eagle River offered to fund a new park to replace and enhance the lost park’s facilities. Following extensive planning and discussions, the township and donor agreed to build the new park in the township square using a design that would preserve the historic look of the buildings and the open character of the field. Constructions started in the summer of 2019. The pandemic slowed progress but  90% the park was open in 2021.

We will complete the original park plan in 2023.
