On this, the International Day of Play, we celebrate the workers hammering, cutting, drilling, carrying and pounding to create a welcoming place to gather.
Pavilion progress continues. Ceiling panels and walls are going up. Doors are arriving soon and because of hard work, this big space is just about ready for all the playing you can imagine. Weddings, dances, parties, reunions, banquets, anniversaries, and retreats. Play needs our people and people need a space to gather. We got you!

WoodShed Room Progress
What was once the 10th hole bar of the Deepwood golf course is transforming into a hospitality room and bridal suite. It’ll be a room with something old, something new and something borrowed. What should be something blue?

We’re working on a new way for wedding parties to get to the Cathedral Pines ceremony area. It’ll be the start of so many beautiful journeys. 👰♀️🤵🌲💍. #woodwindpark #woodwindweddings #rusticelegance #weddinginthewoods #thepark #wwp #getwoodwedded #wisconsin #westernwisconsin #cathedralpines #walkinthewoods #getoutside
Marking progress for a project as massive as building The Park is best when we focus on small increments. This week's lovely changes are framing and doorways in the chalet renovation. You can see how things have shifted from the pre-demo video. The coat room is now framed as a more wide open entry. The bathrooms are laid out on the upper level and the opening to the event room is shifted over, wider and will allow for grand entry into that space.

Join us for a weekend of music at The Park, August 26th-28th.
Happy #ThrowbackThursday from inside the walls of the Deepwood dance hall. At some point during construction of that room, a builder named Dave A. wrote his name on a stud. Any clue which Dave A. might have helped build the expansion of the building?

Wall demo is hard work. It certainly changes the look of a room to get down to the studs though!

The rain didn’t really stop this weekend, but it let up enough for a little seed throwing today. This grassy area near the event tent is going to be the perfect spot for grass games and surprises. (Pssst…there will be big bubbles and a bounce house there at the Car Show and Concert event on June 4th!)
