Welcome to the State Park!
Where fun, fitness, and education come together!
Don't miss our new summer classes, which are available during May 23—Aug 5
●Swimming lessons: Age4—adult. Cost: $5 per class or $15 for one month.
●Hiking: Have a park keeper hike with you through our paths and teach you about the park's wildlife and plants. The park is a perfect spot for hiking.
●Soccer: Our youth soccer program is unusual and non-competitive. Different teams are formed every day. The focus is on each player learning to work as a team, not on one team winning it at all.
●Boating: These classes are only for 20-year-olds and above. Fishing is only allowed with a permit.
●Bicycling: We have special paths built for bicyclists. Signs are posted for self-guided tours of our park.
Group cycling is also available with a park guide. Paths range from easy to challenging.
A message from the director:
Hiking paths! Sports fields! Playgrounds! Campgrounds! Fun activities! The Stake Park offers something for everyone. We have a number of plants and animals, which are in danger of dying out, being protected in our park. Sign up for one of our new summer community classes, or take a camping trip with your friends or family. Our facilities are set up with modern systems, so you don't have to suffer to enjoy nature—unless you want to!

Are you 13-17 years old? Ever wonder what it would be like to be a park keeper? It's a competitive field, but you can get ahead by volunteering with our Teen Keeper Program. Depending on your age and responsibilities, you can even earn college credits for certain universities!
