Cost, is of course, a critical consideration and we will work with you to remain within your budget and deliver exceptional value for your team-building and recognition dollars. Your price depends on the date of the picnic, size of group, food selections, and services provided. We are happy to fax a detailed estimate as soon as we know what you'd like. The following is a complete list of pricing categories. 

THE RENTAL FEE:

Your reservation for the exclusive use of Wiegand’s Lake Park is final upon receipt of the rent, and is due upon booking. All other food and services are billed to you after the day of your picnic. Weekdays and holiday weekends are less costly than high-demand weekend dates.
