Things are Happening in Cook Park!
On the banks of the Tualatin River, the 79-acre Cook Park is the largest park in the
City and has something for everyone.
Whether baseball, basketball, volleyball, softball, or soccer is your sport, you can burn
up some energy on the many courts and fields available. If you prefer less active
pastimes, Cook Park also offers horseshoe pits, fishing dock, small boat ramp,
playground and several walking trails and bike paths (over 2 miles of hard
surface trails and 1/2 mile of soft trails).
Hungry? Get out the red-checkered tablecloth and picnic
basket and enjoy one of the park’s many picnic areas.
Five (5) picnic shelters can be reserved for family reunions,
company picnics, wedding receptions, birthday parties and more. Our shelters
include barbecue pits and picnic tables. Cook Park is home to the
Bishop-Scheckla pavilion which can
be reserved for performing art events. Reservations
are now being accepted for shelter-use April
through September 2013.
Cook Park’s river location provides easy access for
canoeing, kayaking, boating, fishing, and many miles of scenic waterways. Look
closely and you might see a great blue heron or a river otter among the variety
of wildlife visible throughout the year!
In June the skies over Tigard are filled with
rainbow-colored hot air balloons as Cook Park hosts the
annual Tigard Festival
of Balloons. "Fun" is the focus, as thousands of visitors come to watch the
balloons take off, ride the ferris wheel at the carnival, munch on festival
food, and boogie to live bands. Bring your camera, you might spy a floating pig!
