Reservation Lottery System
A number lottery system will be used that morning to ensure fairness for the patrons wishing to reserve the more popular shelters and summer weekend dates. Numbered tickets will be distributed beginning at 7:30a.m., with the drawing to begin promptly at 8:15a.m. Phone-in reservations will begin at 11:00a.m. Because of the lottery system, it will not be in anyone’s best interest to arrive at the Madison Parks office before 7:30a.m.
Long-standing annual special events will be reserved in advance of the Park Shelter reservation date. Those 2012 event dates will be posted on the Madison Parks website by November 5, 2011 for the 2012 season.
Please note that on November 15, full payment for the shelter reservation is due that day. Payment for any permits is due within 10 days of your event.
