Developed in 1982, this park in Olympia resides on 40 acres and offers a wide range of recreation experiences as it features four ballfields (three lighted) that convert to three soccer fields. The most unusual feature of the park is the created wetland, which serves as a stormwater retention pond during heavy rains that would otherwise flood nearby streets. The wetland provides aquatic and upland habitat, inviting a variety of waterfowl into one of Olympia’s most urban environments. The park is also home to Olympia Skate Court, which opened in 2000 and features an 11,500 square foot concrete skating surface which attracts all types of skaters. Yauger Park also contains a jogging path, playground, horseshoe pits, community gardens, an educational facility and a concession stand.
