SANGER — November 2, 2026. Sanger’s Parks and Recreation Department says most designated park picnic areas can be reserved for $25 for groups of one to 29 people, while larger groups face additional insurance requirements.

City parks with different uses

Sanger Park has a pavilion and stage, Greenwood Park has shaded picnic space, and JFK Park includes a splash pad and sports areas. The city lists separate fees for selected large structures, so the basic picnic rate is not a universal event price.

What changes for a large gathering

The city states that groups of 30 or more need additional insurance. Nonresidents may pay double the usual reservation fees; ID and a city utility bill may be requested to establish residency.

Where reservations are made

The city provides a parks-and-facilities online booking service and a Parks Office option for assistance. A public picnic table is not considered exclusively reserved unless the organizer follows the booking process and receives confirmation.
