SCHUMACHER POND DESCRIPTION:

Schumaker Pond is 38 acres roughly and is surrounded by Schumaker Park and the Ward Museum of Wildfowl Art.

SCHUMACHER PARK DESCRIPTION:

Schumaker Park is a beautiful, 11 acre wooded area nestled peacefully along the waterline of Schumaker Pond. The park is somehow spacious and intimate at the same time, making it perfect for either a large gathering or a quiet, casual outing.

Family reunions or corporate picnics, for instance, can be easily accommodated in the large pavilion which sits up on the hill overlooking the water. An oversized grill is situated right next to the pavilion, in its own shelter, making it easy to cook on the spot for big groups.

At the other end of the park is a playground with swings, slides, riding toys and a play set. Picnic tables and benches are spread throughout the well-shaded park, providing many separate areas for rest and relaxation.

Down the hill from the wooded area is a narrow beach along the pond and a long dock which can be used for fishing. There is also an 18-hole disc golf course spread throughout Schumaker Park, affectionately called “the Schu” by regular players.
