The Constitution Pavilion is a fantastic venue for any gathering, especially those with high-energy kids in tow! The playground is a massive hit with the elementary-aged crowd, and having swings and a gaga ball pit nearby kept everyone entertained for hours.
From a logistical standpoint, it’s a dream for hosts: the pavilion features eight large picnic tables, providing ample seating for a big group. Best of all? You are just steps away from clean, permanent public restrooms. No porta-potties to deal with here! Highly recommend for a stress-free outdoor event.

Excellent place. Has something for everyone. Bathroom facilities clean and well maintained. Room to roam. Nice playground for the kiddies. Beach volleyball court, full basketball court. Only improvement suggestion would be to switch to 40amp breakers at the pavilion and add 2 outlets at the pole.
