FUN IN THE PARKS

An 18 hole disc golf course is available free of charge in CAM-PLEX Park. The front nine begins at Shelter #6 with the tee pads and baskets spread out through the trees east of the main park area. The back nine heads east from Shelter #6 and curves back around to the west through the open meadows before heading back to the parking area. The course boasts many challenging holes on both the front and back nines with trees in the fairway or by extreme distances and placement of the baskets.

The playground system near the concession stand boasts several challenges and takes play to new heights. The main structure has three levels that reach to a height of 14’ with two long tube slides that exit from the top platform and a lean out structure that allows kids the opportunity to look straight down from the top deck.

Slides, climbing walls, log climbers, bridges, and ladders abound on the play structures for an appealing and adventuresome experience.

The old standby swings and merry-go-round are included in the playground along with spring ride toys.

Softball, baseball, and soccer are all popular sports in Gillette and Bicentennial Park maintains fields for your enjoyment. Six regulation softball fields and two baseball fields are available for use throughout the summer. The fields are used for league play every night of the week but may be used on weekends if tournaments are not already scheduled. Check with the Recreation Center for field availability.

Soccer goals are left out on the fields through the summer for those interested in playing pickup games. Sidelines and penalty boxes are not marked as the goals will be moved occasionally to prevent wear spots from developing in the goal areas.

Eight lighted tennis courts (4 with pickle ball lines) are available on a first come-first served basis. The light operators are located near the south end of the courts and a strobe light will begin flashing when your time is about up. There is no charge for the use of the lights.

Shelter Reservations $20/day. Consumption of alcohol is not permitted in Bicentennial Park without City of Gillette Permits.
