What are we fundraising for?

The Town of Russell Parks Committee is fundraising for the construction of a community pavilion at Rice Park. We are planning to fundraise through February 2027, with installation of the pavilion planned for spring and summer of 2027.

Now that we have a playground at Rice Park, we'd love to add a pavilion to expand park offerings. This pavilion will be a great way for families to enjoy the park more, whether it be as location for a picnic or as a place to have a family member's graduation party.

What are the pavilion details?

The plan is to have a pavilion with the following details:

20' x 40' pavilion
Eastern White Pine timber beam construction
Metal roofing
Concrete floor

Note: Design subject to change depending on actual funds raised.

Pine: $500-$999

Maple: $1,000 - $4,999

Oak: $5,000 - $9,999
