Event Policy
The Boughton Park Board of Directors periodically receives requests for organized group events within the Park. It is difficult to predict the impact of these events, i.e., size of the group, needed parking, the number of other visitors in the park, etc. As a result, the following policy applies to all group events in the Park:

Organized town groups (churches, scouts, Bloomfield or Victor School classes, etc.) should contact Member Claudia Walsh by email at: boughtonparkinfo@gmail.com at least two months in advance, to discuss specific details for any desired Park event.

For other private groups and organizations, the following rules apply:

  • The maximum size of the group is 25 people.
  • The maximum number of cars for the group is limited to 10.
  • Either or both parking lots may be used, however the maximum still applies.
  • The Stirnie Road picnic pavilion may be used. The reservation system should be used by contacting Member Claudia Walsh by email at: boughtonparkinfo@gmail.com as early as possible, as this is a limited resource available to all residents.
  • No permanent or temporary structures can be brought in or constructed in the Park for any event.
  • A representative of the event must make a request and provide documented details to the Boughton Park Board of Directors at least 2 months in advance of the planned event date.
  • Depending on the size, the group must pay in advance, the rental fee for any additional porta-johns on site during the event. The Boughton Park Board of Directors will schedule the drop off and pickup of the unit.
  • Only 1 event can be scheduled on any one day in the Park. First requested is first granted.
  • The group must identify one responsible individual to act as contact for the Town and Park. This representative will attend the event and be responsible for the event and its use of the Park before, during, and immediately after the event (i.e., including cleanup).

Donations to the Park are always welcome.

All other Park rules and regulations apply, including:

  • All parked cars must have a tag and be within the two designated parking areas.
  • All fishing is CATCH & RELEASE ONLY
  • No alcohol in the Park.
  • Swimming is prohibited anywhere in the Park.
  • This is a carry-in carry-out Park. Nothing is to be left in the Park after the event.
