Sholan Park  

Sholan Park features picnic tables, fireplaces and charcoal grills available for use during the summer season. There is also a sand volleyball court (bring your own volleyball) and a paved half court basketball court. There is  a boat ramp at the end of Hall Ave. next to Sholan Park. If you plan to utilize Lake Waushacum for boating we strongly urge you to take a safe boating class from either the US Coast Guard Auxiliary or the US Power Squadron (US Coast Guard Auxiliary Boating Safety Info).
