Regarded as one of the finest outdoor sporting venues in the state, this facility features spectacular views of Mt. Rainier, five softball/baseball/fastpitch fields and six regulation-size soccer/football/rugby fields, as well as picnic tables and outdoor event facilities, playgrounds, concession stands, two miles of natural surface trails and paved walking trails, restrooms, and much more.
In 1998, Lacey and Thurston County jointly acquired 67 acres. Phase 1 was completed in 2004 and included four soccer/football/rugby fields. Phase 2 construction began in 2008. Phase 3 (25.99 acres on the west side of Marvin Road) will be developed in the future as funding becomes available.
