The Thomas Lake pavilion features similar openness and the room to spread out. The feeling of seclusion is surprising in our suburban setting. The Blackhawk Park pavilion overlooks Blackhawk Lake and provides excellent views of the Minnesota River Valley. Open space for picnic games, walking trails, and a large fire ring are features of this facility. The pavilions will accommodate groups as large as 150 people. Picnic necessities such as water and electricity are available in the pavilion. Restroom facilities are nearby. Events can be planned for half or full days. Half day time blocks run from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM or 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM. Activities which overlap either of the time periods will be considered a full day. Reservations are accepted for weekday or weekend events. The resident fee is $70 per half day or $100 for a full day. Non- resident individuals and corporations are charged $90 per half day, $120 per full day. A damage deposit of $150 is required. The serving kitchen at Blackhawk Park carries a $30 use fee, plus tax. Pavilion reservations are subject to state sales tax. TO RESERVE A PAVILION: 1.
