What's Happening at Long Park?
Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Linkedin Email this linkHave you noticed Long Park is receiving a facelift? You may have seen or heard about the new pickleball courts that will be opening soon and wondered about other activities happening daily. The small excavator is removing the old cracked and uneven sidewalks which will be replaced with wide, smooth paths allowing safe and accessable access to the park from the parking lot at the Civic Center and Molalla Avenue. The concrete apron in front of the restrooms is also being replaced. The swing set that was removed to make way for the pickleball court was not salvageable, so a new swing set is on order and we are anticipating it's arrival as much as you are! The paths, swing set, and pickleball court, are ADA compliant making Long Park more accessible to all. Irrigation has been replaced, added, or improved, and fresh bark dust brought in. We can't wait for this project to be complete and for you to enjoy the new features!
Please let us know if you have questions!

Strawberry Park Opens to the Public!
Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Linkedin Email this linkStrawberry Park
Molalla’s newest playground is located at 800 Mary Drive just past Shenandoah Drive. Park design was determined by the Molalla Park Community Program Committee (CPC) with an emphasis on our younger youth. This community received a huge benefit when Molalla Communications donated $100,000 that made it possible to install fall protection here at Strawberry Park and in the new playground at Fox Park.
Please be watching for finishing touches and more installations at this great new facility
