Though the weather has been springlike for awhile now, there’s another reason to go to a Lawrence park: amenities, such as restrooms, opened for the season Friday, and park shelters and gazebos became available to rent.

Shelters and gazebos can be reserved starting Friday until Oct. 30, with notice of at least two working days. Shelters run $45 to rent for a half day and $75 for a full day. Gazebo fees are $50 for a half day and $90 for a full day.

There are shelters at: Broken Arrow Park, 2900 Louisiana St.; Burcham Park, 200 Indiana St.; Centennial Park, 600 Rockledge Road; Clinton Lake Outlet Park, 1316 East 902 Road; Clinton Park, 901 West Fifth St.; Dad Perry Park, 1200 Monterey Way; Hobbs Park, 702 East 11th St.; Holcom Park, 2700 West 27th St.; Lyon Park, 700 North Lyon St.; and Prairie Park, 2811 Kensington Road.

Reservations aren’t taken for the shelters at Deerfield Park, 2901 Princeton Boulevard; Brook Creek Park, 1200 Brook St.; and John Taylor Park, 200 North Seventh St. They’re available on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Gazebos are located at South Park, 1311 Massachusetts St.; Watson Park, Sixth and Kentucky streets; and the Lawrence Rotary Arboretum, 5100 W. 27th St.
