Shelters & Depot

Shelters

The City has three park shelters that can be reserved at no cost. The shelters available for reservation are the large shelters at Lions Park, Steyer Park and Black Elk-Neihardt Park. All other shelters at these parks and other parks are available on a First Come - First Serve basis. If you are interested in reserving one of the above shelters, please contact Blair City Hall at 402-426-4191 during normal business hours. The fee for reserving a shelter is $50.

If you are planning to hold a large special event in a city park (ex: Jazz in the Park, Optimist Easter Egg Hunt etc.), we would appreciate prior written notice. Please send the notice via email or to:
Blair City Hall
Attention - City Clerk
218 S 16th Street
Blair, NE 68008

This will allow the appropriate city departments to be notified of the special event.

Depot in the Park

The City also has one four-season facility available for rent - the historic Depot in the Park facility located in Lions Park. This is an indoor facility with heating and air conditioning but no water or restroom facilities in the Depot. All season restrooms are located in the park next to the Depot.

The Depot has two large overhead garage doors that open to the deck area. 12 tables and 64 chairs are available for use at the Depot.
