Facility Rentals

The Recreation and Parks Department rents select facilities and park shelters to community organizations, groups, and citizens. Learn more about renting a shelter, room, or other facility at hilliardohio.gov/facility-rentals or by contacting Hayley Bush at hbush@hilliardohio.gov.

Groups are responsible for all setup and cleanup and must provide their own supplies, decorations, table coverings, and food.

Community/Senior Center rentals for 150 or more people will be charged an additional $100 custodial fee. A $200 refundable deposit and the full rental fee must be paid with a major credit card or debit card at the time of reservation to reserve your event date. Deposit refunds will be credited to that original card within five business days, assuming facility rules are followed and no damage occurs.

Park shelters are for public purposes only. Groups renting City facilities are not permitted to charge admission or registration fees. Groups may not host events that raise funds for personal or for-profit organizations. There are no kitchen amenities available for public use at the facilities.

Refunds for Facility and Athletic Field Rentals

The City does not refund facility and athletic field fees (or down payments, if applicable) if a cancellation is made fewer than thirty (30) days before the reservation date. Cancellations made fewer than thirty (30) days in advance provide minimal opportunity for rental to another party.

A refund minus a 10-percent service charge will be approved when a registrant submits a written request at least thirty (30) days before the rental date. Exception: a non-refundable deposit is required to reserve an aquatic center or major multi-field complexes. The deposit will be credited toward the final payment of facility rental. If the reservation is canceled, the deposit is forfeited. The City, at its discretion, may allow the deposit to be credited to another event or reservation, provided the party making the reservation has not canceled previous reservations.

The Director of Recreation and Parks will review special requests when submitted in writing.

Reynolds Municipal Park that can be reserved for a non-refundable fee of $100 per day (8 a.m. – 9 p.m.) Shelter rentals must be made online. 2020 reservations began Jan. 2, 2020.

Green Space and Fields

Due to high demand for field space, organizations are assigned priority scheduling for certain fields in exchange for fees and maintenance agreements. We implement a lottery system for other teams that are requesting field space. To learn more about our fields and the fees, contact Darcy Baxter.
