Warner Park Community Recreation Center
Get ready to dance under the disco ball because Picnic in the Park is back with an exciting twist! For the first time, we are moving the event indoors and transforming the Warner Park Community Recreation Center into an '80s Gym Prom spectacular.
A Celebration Years in the Making
This isn’t just a party. It’s a celebration of the much-needed expansion of the Warner Park Community Recreation Center. Located at 1625 Northport Drive, near the Mallards Ballpark, the Rec Center has long been a cornerstone of community life on the north side. Since its opening, the demand for recreational activities and programming has far exceeded the facility’s capacity.
